Ruben Amorim is no longer with us. He hasn’t actually died. But his tenure as Manchester United’s HEAD COACH is over. I shan’t mourn his absence anytime soon. I imagine many others will not either after enduring possibly the most unsuccessful 14 months in the club’s modern history. We wanted this to succeed. We didn’t […]

Matheus Cunha A week or two ago, it seemed like Matheus Cunha was ready to go on a run. Unfortunately for United, this hasn’t come to pass. With most of the top players in the side out, it’s only natural for the opposition to keep a tight lid on the player most likely to cause […]

Patrick Dorgu’s first-half performance and goal were the major takeaways from last week’s game against Newcastle. It wasn’t a major turning point in the season, but we saw a player who has struggled to make a significant impact in the final third look like a useful contributor in attack for once. This had little to […]

Formation I felt like too much was being made of Ruben Amorim’s adjustments in recent weeks, but last week was a clear shift to a back four in the first half. With Mason Mount most likely out, we could see another adjustment to the set-up. It’s hard to predict the starting set-up with so many […]

Ayden Heaven has been one of the big positives in recent weeks. He is capable in the air, aggressive, fairly quick, composed on the ball, and an able passer. In so many ways, he ticks what most United fans look for in a player, so it’s hard not to be excited. There’s always the temptation […]
