This Sunday Manchester United will travel to Portman Road Stadium to take on Ipswich Town and it will be the first game for Red Devils new manager Rúben Amorim since leaving his previous club Sporting Liston, who are currently top of the table in Portoguese league with 14 straight wins.
The 39 year old will be the Red Devils 9th manager since their legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson walked off into the sunset after years of unbelievable success at Manchester United football club, delivering trophy after trophy and ‘knocking Liverpool off their perch’ as was famously once said by the great Scot.
Rúben Amorim will step in to one of, if not the biggest job in world football. The Old Trafford club has been a mess since Sir Alex Ferguson left the role.
They have gone through manager after manger, some big name managers too and none of them has gone the distance or been the right person to live up to the standards of Manchester United. A club with a rich history and tradition, that demands success and is a club know all over the world.
The Red Devils currently sit 13th in the Premier League table, a position that is simply not good enough and why Erik ten Hag had to go.
Rúben Amorim will have a job on his hands in turning Manchester United’s season around and making sure they compete for the top four this season and hopefully for their fans, get that all important Champions League football for next year and all the money that comes with it. It will be a serious test no doubt, just like we how tested hundreds of slots websites.
The Portuguese will have to be given time at the club and he will have to weed out all the time wasters and try his best to attract some top rated talent to the club.
The question has to be asked though, what is success for Manchester United nowadays? The game and the league has changed a lot in the last ten to 20 years. You now have Manchester City, Chelsea and Newcastle United who have an unlimited budget.
The likes of Tottenham Hotspur, Everton and even Aston Villa all have their houses in order. Will Manchester United ever have the success that they had under Sir Alex Ferguson? It doesn’t look likely, but one thing that is for sure.
The fans will demand trophies, maybe not instantly, but the eyes of the football world, will be firmly fixed on Portman Road come 4:30pm on Sunday. Interesting times ahead ..
