INEOS at Man Utdđđź
- Publicly look for a new manager and interview Amorim, only to decide against appointing him.
- Keep Ten Hag, give him a new contract and spend ÂŁ200m on players suited to his system.
- Just three months later, sack Ten Hag and appoint the same Amorim they interviewed in the summer, despite him playing a completely different system that demands different players.
- Dan Ashworth reportedly argues that Ten Hag should be given more time, or that United should appoint a manager better suited to the summer signings.
- Ratcliffe hates that Ashowth disagrees with him (because Jim thinks he knows best) and after spending months and going through legal action to get Ashworth, heâs gone after five months.
- Wonder why things get worse under Amorim when the squad isnât suited to his system. Ratcliffe then says heâll give Amorim three years.
- Wilcox reportedly tells Amorim how he should coach and set up his team. Amorim isnât happy. Ratcliffe backs Wilcox and sacks Amorim.
- Appoint Carrick, lose a huge player in Casemiro, spend next to nothing backing Carrick and then wonder why it goes wrong.
- Now theyâre reportedly delaying the inevitable with Carrick for financial reasons, leaving everyone in limbo.
Ratcliffe said when he arrived that United wouldnât keep changing between managers with different styles of play. Thatâs exactly what theyâve done.
Berrada said players who donât perform for two years would be moved on. We sold nobody this summer.
Theyâre liars, theyâre incompetent, and this feels like one big vanity project to them.
The fact that a man whoâs spent his entire career in energy and chemicals is making the final call on major football decisions at Man Utd is a disgrace.
And people wonder why this club is a mess.
How about hiring competent football people, stepping back and letting them make the decisions?
Instead, we finally hire someone experienced in Dan Ashworth, he reportedly disagrees over calls like Amorim, and heâs gone after five months. All while Ratcliffe continues to make the final call.
Every major decision Ratcliffe has got wrong, every decision is reactionary.
Then we hear stories of him telling the physios how they can do their job better, and he has experience to tell them this because he runs marathons.. who does this guy think he is?
Jim Ratcliffe thinks he knows better than everyone else but the truth is he doesn't. Since he's come into the club our average win rate post fergie has dropped from just over 50% to now near 30%.
How I imagine Eddie Howe would setup United with everyone fit.
LW is a toss up between Cunha or Rashford tbh but I know he wanted Cunha at Newcastle.
With Sesko injured could see him going Rashford LW, Cunha CF and Mbeumo RW but think Mbeumo does ST better than Cunha personally.
10% win rate without Bruno Fernandes.
Please never blame him for our clubs problems again.
All his over performances papered over the cracks of how poor the squad being built is.
What INEOS have done at #mufc in less than THREE YEARS. Itâs actually scary:
⢠Publicly explored replacing Ten Hag, then kept him and extended his contract.
⢠Spent around £200m that summer, only to sack him three months later.
⢠Spent millions securing Dan Ashworth after months of negotiations, only for him to leave five months into the job due to him not being on board with Amorim replacement due to huge change in playing style amid reports.
⢠Backed Amorim after finishing 15th, then sacked him following a reported breakdown in relations with the hierarchy. Where was that decisiveness over performances?
⢠Ratcliffe publicly said Amorim needed three years in October. He was gone by January.
⢠Retained Matt Hargreaves to lead transfer negotiations, yet weâre still questioning why moving players on and completing deals is so difficult. Hargreaves was working in sports marketing before this role.
⢠Said Carrick was an interim appointment while they took their time finding the right long-term manager. Then gave Carrick the job, reportedly against Vivellâs advice.
⢠Left Carrick going into a Champions League season without signing a left-back or providing adequate squad depth. Now weâre discussing his replacement in OCTOBER.
⢠If Carrick goes, his replacement will be the fourth permanent manager to work under INEOS in less than three years.
⢠Wilcox could get another say in choosing the manager despite his role in the decisions that brought us here. He reportedly wants Eddie Howe. Imagine still having Dan AshworthâŚ
⢠Ratcliffe identified constant managerial changes and switches in playing style as Unitedâs problem in February 2024. Said the club needed an identity and recruitment to match. Theyâve repeated the exact cycle he criticised.
⢠Sold McTominay and signed Ugarte despite reports Ten Hag wanted to keep McTominay.
⢠Moved the womenâs team into temporary facilities so the men could use their building during Carrington renovations.
⢠Ratcliffe reportedly asked Katie Zelem, the womenâs captain at the time, who she was and what she did at the club.
⢠Made hundreds of staff redundant while spending millions reversing their own decisions on managers and executives.
⢠Raised remaining membersâ match tickets to ÂŁ66 midway through 2024/25, removing concessions for children and pensioners on those tickets.
⢠Moved longstanding season-ticket holders out of their seats to make room for more corporate hospitality.
⢠Scrapped free staff lunches, reduced bonuses and removed free staff travel to the FA Cup final.
⢠Cancelled the staff Christmas party and reportedly replaced the £100 Christmas bonus with a £40 M&S voucher.
