Manchester United changes! Amorin stays in office and starts the "Era of Great Purge", Garnacho may become the first victim

Manchester United coach Ruben Amorin officially announced his resignation, and his coaching position was not affected by the Europa League final defeat. The decision was confirmed by club co-owner Jim Ratcliffe himself, marking that Manchester United will start a systematic reconstruction.

Retention background: Management's bet on "long-termism"

Although Amorin led the team only to 16th place in the Premier League this season (if the final score is 39 points, it will be the lowest in the Premier League in history), and there is no success in all competitions, Sir Ratcliff made a clear statement before the final: "No matter what the result is, Amorin is the cornerstone of Manchester United's future." This decision is based on two points:

Downtown room control: Amorin resolved the dissatisfaction of many players through communication during the season, such as persuading B Fee (Bruno Fernandez) to accept the rotation role, and proactively proposed that if the results do not meet the standards, he can leave for free to show his sincerity.

Tactical adaptability: Its 4231 system is consistent with Manchester United youth training players (such as Garnacho and Anthony), emphasizing breakthroughs on the wing and rapid conversions, trying to break the team's "passing and controlling deadlock".

Reconstruction plan: Cleaning and signings to advance on both sides

Amorin has submitted a summer window plan to the senior management, including:

Lineline major blood exchange: Players over 28 years old (such as Casemiro and Maguire) will be given priority for sale. Garnacho has been notified to find his next player due to his decline in tactical status, and his transfer fee may reach 45 million euros.

Signing focus:

Front line: 67.5 million pounds for Wolves forward Mattus Cunya, whose performance of 15 goals and 6 assists in 34 Premier League games this season is regarded as the answer to the front line;

Midfield and backcourt: 30 million pounds liquidated damages clause is activated to compete for free agent Liam Drapp after Ipswich relegation.

Potential Challenge: Performance pressure and financial difficulties

Chain reaction of lack of European competition: Missing the Champions League will result in club losses of more than 100 million pounds of revenue, directly affecting the signing budget. If funds cannot be raised through the sale of players (such as Rashford and Anthony), the operating space in the summer window will be greatly limited.

Disruption risk of locker room turmoil: Garnacho's departure may cause dissatisfaction among young players, and negotiations on renewal of high-paying players such as B Fee have reached a deadlock due to salary cuts.

From tactical reform to fiscal reform, Amorin's retention marks Manchester United's entry into a high-risk reconstruction stage. If the team can introduce immediate combat power in the summer window and cultivate 3-4 main Premier League stars, the team is expected to return to the championship ranks in the 2025/26 season; otherwise, the management may be forced to launch the "Plan B".

I wonder when Manchester United will be able to emerge from the "post-Ferguson era"?
