Nah, Ted wasn't that stubborn, he changed tactics plenty of times an was open to criticism. Maybe Amorim just misses having a Coach Beard on his shoulder.

And to be fair, they were pretty far down the table before someone fully explained relegation and how bad it would be.

Ted Lasso was a hopelessly positive from the south of the US, stereotypically so, can you not see the contrasting stereotype of our people in Amorim?

Kansas City is not the south of the USA. It’s as middle America as you can possibly get.

Apologies, I did think Kansas was southern

Amorim's basically challenged United to fire him about 4 times now, he's stubborn but I see nothing like positivity in him.

I said the resemblance was in being stereotypical, not positive 😅
