If you’re a Manchester United fan, you already know being optimistic these days is basically a contact sport. Group chats are pure chaos. Every weekend? Guaranteed emotional damage. If you’ve screamed “bas karo yaar!” at your screen lately, join the club. Here’s the no-filter download on why United needs to cut ties with Ruben Amorim faster than your ex blocked you.
1) The League Table Is Screaming Help
Bhai, table dekh ke dil toot gaya. United just finished the 2024/25 Premier League season in 15th place, yeah, you heard that right, FIFTEENTH. That’s their worst finish since the mid-70s, and not in a cool retro way. Amorim even said sorry on the pitch, but an apology doesn’t win you points. And as of September 27, 2025, the flop streak is still active: a 3-1 loss at Brentford took their winless away run to eight.

2) Big Nights, Small Margins… Still L’s
It’s like, every big match is, “this is our moment!” then United promptly fumbles the bag. Case in point: losing the 2025 Europa League final to Spurs, 1-0, then crashing to their worst league finish days later. The post-final “we’ll bounce back” energy died faster than your New Year’s resolutions. Inconsistency is now the brand; hope was in the gym, but results were skipping leg day.

3) Tactics: Identity Crisis FC
Remember that shiny 3-4-3 high-press system? On paper, chef’s kiss. On grass? Buffering like a bad WiFi connection. The squad keeps conceding early, never controls the game, and even Amorim admitted that United “played exactly how Brentford wanted”. Back-to-back wins? Rarer than chill in a Delhi summer. All that tactical PowerPoint, but matchday pe lagging.
4) Player Trajectories: Expensive Pieces, Puzzle Missing
Itna paisa laga, phir bhi ‘Are we the drama?’ vibes. United splurged on big attacking names, only for them to misfire, think missed penalties, cold finishing, the works. There are youth sparks, but no one’s clear on roles. It’s giving “throw everyone in and pray”, jugaad FC at premium prices.
5) PR Soundbites > Pitch Solutions
The apologies and “better days are coming” speeches? Hamara patience ka data plan expire ho gaya, bro. Amorim’s heartfelt post-match apology and rallying cry for fans didn’t stop the league table from dropping red flags. And fam, we’ve been listening to this “change is coming” mixtape since 2013. Words FC can’t beat Points FC.

6) The Clock (and Shortlist) Is Ticking
When gossip about replacements gets more airtime than tactics talk, bhaisaab, it’s game over. United are already linked with names like Gareth Southgate, Oliver Glasner, and Andoni Iraola for the hot seat. Amorim’s contract runs until 2027, but the longer the delay, the bigger the mess. So, Manchester United board: “Kya scene hai? Bold ya hold?”
United fans deserve consistency, not emotional rollercoasters and tragic plot twists. Without tactical jugaad, actual momentum, or even decent vibes, what’s the point? Sack now or back till Christmas? What do you think?
