The only Manchester United fans has on Ruben Amorim is to hope cor the better and also expect the worst because they can't ignore the chances of him failing.

It seems to me majority have forgotten the praise Erik Ten Hag recieved when he moved to Manchester United, after all he was doing wonderfully well with the Ajax  team, many was saying he was their own personal Guardiola, but in the end things fell off so much now he has been sacked. I think Ruben Amorim will be more humble and cautious than the prideful Ten Hag, who's now a shame to himself after all his bragging statements.

Erik ten Heg has no shame, I believe that for him to get another job it will take time. This new manager will definitely get that praises because is normal for Manchester United fans and one of their problem is over hyping anything that shows any sign of positivity, they won't observe how it will be like in a long run, you'd see them talking as if they have seen the future and the fans can even say the new manager will win them champions league and EPL title, is really funny. Man UTD can't start doing better immediately the new manager comes in but one thing is for sure that whoever has a good record outside EPL when you start playing or coaching Manchester United you'd fail because the expectation will make you start making mistakes.

Manchester United's game will not improve until they improve, as the first half was a frustrating affair with neither team able to attack normally. But coming into the second half, both teams scored 1-1, but in between, Chelsea team players were stupid, due to which Manchester United team got a penalty and succeeded. 
However, there is a huge difference between the Chelsea team and the Manchester United team at present, between these two teams, the Chelsea team's game has improved a lot, but the Manchester United team has shown weakness in comparison.

No matter how poor Manchester United or Chelsea play in the season when they play against Each other they always play well, I said that No matter how poor Manchester United is this season their match against Chelsea is Unpredicted, Manchester United's match against Chelsea is always Unpredicted because both teams take their match serious, before the match many people are saying that Chelsea is going to defeat Manchester United because Chelsea has been playing well this season but after the match, some people believe that Manchester United match against Chelsea is Unpredicted.

Manchester United played well in the game and we all see that from the match, both teams played well but Manchester United played better than Chelsea because Manchester United was at home, Manchester United players missed some chances if not they would have scored like 3 goals in the match, I hope Manchester United new coach see the fault of the team and those players who are not serious so that they will be sold when he joins the team.

Ruud van Nistelrooy was playing at his best moment as a striker in Manchester United under the management of Alex Ferguson, I think he might be a good manager for Manchester United as he is able to gain a lot of knowledge on strategy when he plays alongside Alex Ferguson in the past as a crucial player for the team. Ruud van Nistelrooy was able to achieve 2 decent results against Leicester City and Chelsea recently but Manchester United are putting their faith in Ruben Amorim as their new manager and I am eagerly awaiting to see if he could lead the team better than Ruud van Nistelrooy.

Indeed, Liverpool would've had a very bad campaign yesterday and joined the league of losers if they were visiting Brighton. Brighton pulled good level of resistance to them even though they were playing from away. Manchester city started impressing me in the final minutes of the second half. I think Doku is a big name there.

The victory over Liverpool by winning the match by two goals made them able to lead the standings again, the competition between the two teams is so fierce because between the two of them who have always moved from one or two positions since yesterday. Man City who experienced defeat in the previous match made them lose points until they had to be shifted from their first position, there is a logical reason why Man City experienced defeat.
With the rumors that Guardiola is worried that the injuries suffered by his team will increase, and this is the problem in my opinion because with many of their injured players this affects their performance and if they continue like this I think Man City will be left behind in terms of points and with the next match maybe they will not be too optimal so this is an advantage for Liverpool.

I think Garnacho can be exceptional if given the time to work on himself. Granted he messed up several opportunities that Man UTD should have used to take the lead but he can still be great. As far as I'm concerned, he's way better than the strikers that Man UTD have because I refuse to believe that Hojlund and Zirkzee are quality strikers, especially Hojlund.
 With how Chelsea players and fans alike kept bragging that they would dust Man UTD when they meet, I thought that United wouldn't see the center half of Chelsea but they were threatening and although the both sides played some confused football, if I were to rate who had the better chances of scoring, I'd say it's Man UTD.

Garnacho was a joke in that game. I hope someone at Manchester United will show Garnacho a replay of his game. He's too selfish. He had many chances to pass to the attackers, but he ignored them all. He just wanted to shoot the ball straight to the goalkeeper. Also, the moment when Casemiro goes berserk to the Garnacho has proven it. He's not starting material right now. The worst part is, I don't get why they benched Rashford. He worked his ass off. But, they kept on a Garnacho who always wasted the ball. Hopefully, they will drop Garnacho to the bench.

I'm not trying to defend Garnacho because honestly I don't like the guy thanks to his selfish behavior but let's admit that aside from Rashford and maybe Bruno Fernandes, the kid was yet another person to upset the Chelsea defense. I'd prefer him twenty times over Hojlund and Zirkzee in that game.
 Well you made a good observation; instead of replacing Rashford, Garnacho should have been the one to leave. I think at some point, he knew he was being wasteful and tried to make amends.

There has never been a red card(s) shown in this fixture Man UTD vs Chelsea fixture and with the way the refs both the VAR refs has been handling games in the EPL hasn't been favoring games instead it is messing up everything, with coaches and players including the fans complaining but they (refs) haven't been able to amend their errors if I should call it that. Yesterday a red card was suppose to be shown to the Manchester United defender Martinez when he tackled Cole Palmer but it seems the ref wasn't interested on checking that tackle neither are the VAR refs, my question is what are they thinking because nobody will say that tackle doesn't deserve a red card, to me that should have been reviewed and also a red card should have been shown to Martinez. Is it that they are trying maintain that record till whenever they feel like letting it go because I don't understand what happened why there wasn't a red card, what do you guys think about this?

I don’t really believe that no red card has ever been awarded in matches between Manchester United and Chelsea. And even if that’s true, it doesn’t mean there won’t ever be one. It’s no secret that the way the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) handles EPL matches isn’t helping the game. Everyone (coaches, fans, and players) is seriously frustrated with how VAR manages decisions. In my opinion, Martinez's challenge on Cole Palmer didn’t warrant a red card, and I was glad the referee didn’t give one. The game was interesting, as it was fair and balanced.

Ruud van Nistelrooy was playing at his best moment as a striker in Manchester United under the management of Alex Ferguson, I think he might be a good manager for Manchester United as he is able to gain a lot of knowledge on strategy when he plays alongside Alex Ferguson in the past as a crucial player for the team. Ruud van Nistelrooy was able to achieve 2 decent results against Leicester City and Chelsea recently but Manchester United are putting their faith in Ruben Amorim as their new manager and I am eagerly awaiting to see if he could lead the team better than Ruud van Nistelrooy.

Ruud van Nistelrooy has proved himself in the two games he has been in charge to Manchester United. A win against Leicester and a draw against Chelsea is a remarkable performance compared with the woeful record of Erik Ten Hag. The management of the club doesn't have confidence in the Dutch tactician maybe because he doesn't have the experience. Ruud wants to remain in the club as an assistant to Ruben Amorim but it will all depend on the decision of the incoming coach. He may likely come with his own staff which might force the current caretaker coach to leave.

If Manchester United can get more good results against POAK in the Europa and the Premiership games with Leicester, Ruud might get a good coaching offer from clubs in January. Winning these two remaining games will boost his CV and make him a good candidate for some vacant managerial jobs.

The only Manchester United fans has on Ruben Amorim is to hope cor the better and also expect the worst because they can't ignore the chances of him failing.

It seems to me majority have forgotten the praise Erik Ten Hag recieved when he moved to Manchester United, after all he was doing wonderfully well with the Ajax  team, many was saying he was their own personal Guardiola, but in the end things fell off so much now he has been sacked. I think Ruben Amorim will be more humble and cautious than the prideful Ten Hag, who's now a shame to himself after all his bragging statements.

Erik ten Heg has no shame, I believe that for him to get another job it will take time. This new manager will definitely get that praises because is normal for Manchester United fans and one of their problem is over hyping anything that shows any sign of positivity, they won't observe how it will be like in a long run, you'd see them talking as if they have seen the future and the fans can even say the new manager will win them champions league and EPL title, is really funny. Man UTD can't start doing better immediately the new manager comes in but one thing is for sure that whoever has a good record outside EPL when you start playing or coaching Manchester United you'd fail because the expectation will make you start making mistakes.

Expectations that are too high for a coach can put great pressure on the coach himself. We know that in the first season Erik Ten Hag came to Man United, there was indeed an increase and at that time Man United managed to get UCL tickets. But yeah, Erik ten Hag seemed to be lulled by all the praise he got and made him lose his focus and made things really bad the following season. But what annoys me is that he rarely says anything about his mistakes but he just keeps making excuses to cover up the shortcomings he has made in the squad. I probably wouldn't call him a completely bad coach. But one thing that is certain is that Erik ten Hag is not ready for a big club like Man United.

[Pokapoka124]

Yes, we can see that Manchester United's game has improved a bit. After Ten Hag left, they can say that they have improved their defense a bit by adopting the new interim coach's strategies. Many of us thought that Manchester United would lose against Chelsea, but they didn't lose, but drew the game. They resisted Chelsea's strong attack and Manchester United performed quite well. I think if Manchester United can improve their game and become stronger, they will definitely be able to do something good by the end of the season. Yes, since Manchester United is currently moving in the right direction, they need to be patient and adopt better strategies if they are to move forward. Manchester United definitely needed a good manager to bring about change, which is what Man United has now and they are preparing to move forward at the moment.

Make sure people shouldn't ask to sack Amorim when he didn't bring good results during his first season. It requires process and consistency, like Pochettino need a year to transform Chelsea.

Don't expect to much for Manchester United in this season, as long as they're not relegated, they're fine.

I think the expectations for Ruben Amorim are modest: to qualify for the Champions League next season and, possibly to win this season's Europa League. Manchester United understands that restoring the club to its rightful place requires patience and consistency, and they are prepared to provide that support to Amorim. If they could give Erik ten Hag time without immediate results, I believe they can afford Ruben Amorim the same patience, considering he hasn't coached an English club before. For this season, my only real expectation is for Manchester United to finish in the top 10.

After sacking Ten Hag and appointing Van Nistelrooy as his successor, Alex Ferguson always watched Manchester United matches live from the stands. Ferguson knows Van Nistelrooy better than anyone else because he made him a great striker in his era. But unfortunately he is only a temporary coach, Manchester United has appointed Ruben Amorim as a permanent coach. I hope Van Nistelrooy can accompany Ruben Amorim as an assistant so that these two great figures can share ideas to improve the quality of Manchester United.

Anyone that does not accept his mistakes but put the blame on others will never learn. This was Ten Hag's problem, instead of looking for a way to identify the errors and where he is going wrong, he ignores that, and gives excuses by putting the blame on the players. He started his first season well and achieved a good result but after that, he couldn't make things work out. I am wondering if the two trophies he won was by luck or by his doings, because from how it ended up with Ten Hag and United, I doubt it was by his experience.

I hope Van Nistelrooy can accompany Ruben Amorim as an assistant so that these two great figures can share ideas to improve the quality of Manchester United.

In the two games that Manchester United have played during Nistelrooy coaching we can see a slight improvement in their game strategy, but in this case I think we can't say if Manchester United has really changed now, if we talk about Ferguson of course we can't deny that he is the most successful coach that Manchester United have ever have, so I think he is the most loyal person to watch Manchester United so far, even before we often saw him in the stadium to watch Manchester United, although at that time red devil was still under Ten Hag coaching, I think Ferguson absence in the previous match may have been due to his dismissal from the team ambassador, but regardless of the reason of course now Ferguson is starting to be able to smile seeing Manchester United starting to improve now.

Amorim has shown exceptional ability to manage the team and develop young players during his career in sporting, so with his experience and innovative approach, of course he can bring positive changes to Manchester United later, apart from that, with the combination of Amorim tactical approach and Van Nistelrooy insight into the team can certainly create a strong dynamic in the team later.

It would be very good for the Manchester United team if Nistelrooy was shown as Ruben Amorim's companion at Manchester United because they would definitely share ideas with each other so that they could bring Manchester United back to glory in the next era. Because I also believe that Nistelrooy has much better tactics than Ten Hag so he is very suitable to be beside coach Ruben Amorim so that Manchester United can have a new spirit and more real changes in terms of its performance in the coming seasons.

I think Ruben Amorim will be more humble and cautious than the prideful Ten Hag, who's now a shame to himself after all his bragging statements.

If I'm not mistaken, I don't think any Manchester United fans praised Ten Hag when he was hired, several people were doubting him because the Eredivisie League and the Premier League are not comparable, the competition between the two leagues is different, how can Ten Hag's performance be compared to that of Guardiola? We cannot compare a manager who has worked in the Premier League for a long time to a manager who was just hired. Since Ten Hag took over, I had terrible feelings that he might be the same way as the past managers they fired.

However, I believe that the Portuguese league is more competitive than the Eredivisie league. Amorim has managed Sporting without a loss this season, and I have more belief in him than Ten Hag, who was afraid to substitute his players in some games. If Sporting defeats Manchester City in the Champions League today, I think there will be even more reason for United supporters to praise Rúben Amorim.

The thing is just that the Manchester United management don't trust Ruud van Nistelrooy that much to give him the job on a permanent basis. For me I think that they had already concluded plans to sack Ten Hag long before they made the announcement. And I have this feeling that the Manchester United management was already in talk with Amorim before now. After they announced the sack of Ten Hag, it was just Amorim they went to straight without even considering other managers. And the discussion didn't take much time for an agreement to be reached.

So to me I believed that they already concluded who the manager would be after Ten Hag, that's why Ruud van Nistelrooy can't have the old Trafford job. If there was no initial plan before Ten Hag sack, Ruud van Nistelrooy would have held the job till January. Although he has indicated interest to remain under Amorim coaching crew. Maybe one day he will have the opportunity to manage Manchester United.

Ruud van Nistelrooy two matches as a Manchester United acting couch shows that he will do well as a couch if given the opportunity to be a full time Manchester United manager, in his first game he won Leicester City 5-2 with an impressive nice goal margin and playing a 1-1 draw against Chelsea in the English premier league I don't this a bad record for him unlike formal couch Erik Ten Hag who hardly play a better a game and also find it difficult to win a game.
Manchester United need to keep Ruud van Nistelrooy as their assistance manager since they have already signed Ruben Amorim from sporting Lisbon.

[Solokan]

At first I thought that Manchester United would appoint Ruud Van Nistelrooy to be Manchester United's permanent coach because after Ten hag left, in my opinion he practice well and made good strategies and as we have seen in the 2 Manchester United matches where Van Nistelrooy accompanied him. running smoothly and well and it can be seen that Manchester United's performance has increased. and the most impressive thing in my opinion was in his last match against Chelsea which ended in a 1-1 draw.

Now Manchester United has chosen Ruben Amorim to be the coach of Manchester United and of course he is replacing Erik Ten Hag and Van Nistelrooy and I want to know what you all think, do you agree that Ruben Amorim is replacing Ten Hag and Ruud Van Nistelrooy. And according to your predictions, will Manchester United's performance improve further or not?

but personally, I agree with Manchester United's decision and honestly I hope that Ruben Amorim can bring Manchester United to a better level and I also hope that the Manchester United players can adapt well and quickly.

Ten Hag might have performed well in his previous team, but it's obvious his vision and leadership skills don't fit into Manchester United. some people say the Premier League is too big for him to coach, yeah that's true but what I can tell you for free is, that his choice of player and attitude towards players is bad. trying to create a good team requires your wisdom on how to handle things. other teams have some internal issues but you don't see them make it public all the time. the discipline he was trying to create should be exercised in such a manner. we've lost some good players because of his hunger to coach his old team players, well football is not a family business he should have known that before making his choices. I'm extremely mad that wanbi saka was sold.

[Pokapoka124]

Not a bad result for Manchester United at all. Both teams get a point. This interim manager, Ruud van Nistelrooy is really something. A few additions to the squad depth in January and Manchester United may just return to winning ways. For all those defending Erik Ten Hag’s tenure at United, do you guys think Manchester United would have performed this well under Erik Ten Hag?

ManU with Ten Hag would have lost the game 100%. Chelsea is in form at the moment and they play very nice football and Van Nistelrooy managed to get a point with the existing squad against them. Beating Leicester in the EFL Cup and now 1 point against Chelsea, they are on the right track and I am really happy that ManU finally changed their manager. It can only get better!

There has been a obvious improvement in Manchester United’s play under interim coach Ruud van Nistelrooy compared to Erik Ten Hag’s tenure, I still think the match would likely have ended in a draw, especially given that encounters between these two clubs have historically produced the most draws in the Premier League. Even though United have shown better form under Ruud van Nistelrooy, they shouldn’t let it go to their heads instead, they should focus on securing Champions League qualification for next season and possibly winning the Europa League this year.

[Gallar]

Ruud van Nistelrooy was playing at his best moment as a striker in Manchester United under the management of Alex Ferguson, I think he might be a good manager for Manchester United as he is able to gain a lot of knowledge on strategy when he plays alongside Alex Ferguson in the past as a crucial player for the team. Ruud van Nistelrooy was able to achieve 2 decent results against Leicester City and Chelsea recently but Manchester United are putting their faith in Ruben Amorim as their new manager and I am eagerly awaiting to see if he could lead the team better than Ruud van Nistelrooy.

Yes, it looks like Nistelroy would be very good if he was appointed as coach at Manchester United. Because this was proven, in the match against Chelsea, Manchester United were able to play very well and almost won the match. So if you look at this, it looks like Nistelroy would be good if he were made Manchester United coach. But the current Manchester United management may not be aware of Nistelroy's potential, so Ruben Amorim was chosen to replace the coaching chair at Manchester United. I personally don't really know what style of play Ruben Amorim will implement at Manchester United. But if you look at the achievements he has achieved with Sporting CP, it can be said that Ruben Amorim is a pretty good coach. Because with Sporting CP he managed to win the Portuguese league several times. And most recently, last season, Ruben Amorim succeeded in bringing Sporting CP to become champions in the Portuguese league.

So if you look at this, Ruben Amorim could bring Manchester United back to life. But we also need to remember that the English league has much tighter competition than the Portuguese league. Therefore, Ruben Amorim's task at Manchester United will certainly be much more difficult than when he was still coaching at Sporting CP. But even so, let's just look at Ruben Amorim's first match coaching Manchester United against Paok in the European league.  If Ruben Amorim can bring Manchester United to victory in this match, it could be a sign that Ruben Amorim has the opportunity to bring Manchester United back to life in the English league. But if Manchester United loses that match, I think it could also be a sign that Ruben Amorim is not yet capable of coaching a big team like Manchester United.
