Ruben Amorim's tumultuous 14-month reign at Manchester United

Ruben Amorim's tenure at Manchester United has come to an end after 14 months in charge, with the club's hierarchy unhappy with his tactics, transfer policy and relationships within the team.

Amorim's arrival was initially seen as a progressive move, given his willingness to work within a modern structure and push for development. However, his attempts to implement a 3-4-3 formation, similar to that used at Sporting, failed to yield results at Manchester United.

Amorim was known for his stubbornness when it came to his tactical decisions, even telling his players to ignore outside criticism. This only served to heighten tensions within the squad.

The decision to part ways with Amorim was announced on January 5, with a new manager expected to be appointed in his place.

During his time at the club, Amorim oversaw a number of unsuccessful transfers, falling out with players such as Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Antony and Alejandro Garnacho.

Manchester United's hierarchy expressed dissatisfaction with Amorim's tactics and transfer policy, seeking a new manager and strategy to make the team more successful.
