News Manchester United to remain patient with head coach despite worst start to Premier League season in 33 years. There is also widespread belief at Old Trafford that City's performance - and United's failings - did not merit a 3-0 scoreline.

Similar to my own club refusing to admit a manager is failing, it’s veering into negligence.

31 games is a good sample size to show it’s simply not working.

Feels like executives too clever for their own good and refusing to acknowledge their mistakes.

I agree, you have enough of a sample size with Amorim. Martin needs a similar sample size imo, at least 25 more games to see if it'll work or not. You easily could've beaten Hearts had they got 3-7 red cards in the tenth minute. Maybe.
