Sitting down hiding on the bench during a penalty shoot-out is the sort of thing people laugh about when you're well-liked, but when you're under pressure you're just giving people more excuse to have a pop.
The only thing missing was a brolly.

I'd walk if I were Amorim. That club is rotten to the core, and it's bloody brilliant.

You'd walk away from millions of quid in a payoff?

They have a good core of players though now.

And even the Garnacho's of the world are half decent.

Rotten as the 1980s version.

I hope he stays, the last thing we want is a managerial vacancy at a club free to spend whatever they like.....

If I were him I'd have considered it at the end of last season, easy enough to walk at that point with his reputation still largely intact. Bit late now he's been given so much money this summer.

Popped over to one of the Man U forums to hate-lurk.

I feel so dirty.

Fortunately, Unai & Emi's names haven't been mentioned...

So pleased for Grimsby!

I think he had his McLaren moment even earlier when they showed him sat there alone faffing about with his magnetic tactics board.

For all the talk of how rotten the club is they still have a chunk of quality players, and a half decent manager would be doing better than Amorim. He seems absolutely clueless and just blames everyone else.

ManU have won 1 of their last 12 domestic matches.

And since winning at ManC before Xmas they've played 29 domestic matches. Their only wins are Saints (R), Fulham, Leicester (R), Ipswich (R), Leicester (R), and us. Plus Arsenal on pens. It's almost impressive to be that shit at ManU.

Miles out of his depth. I have plan A and if plan A don't work I only have plan A. Sad to say but Emery would be a perfect fit there, work with what you have first.
