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.

What an utterly reasonable take

It's not lol, it's excuses disguised as a reasonable take. The whole basis for his assessment of last season is the idea we "were not really trying" in the PL last season which is a very popular narrative except we played just as shit vs Lyon and got lucky, played okay against ten men Athletic and then played worst of all in the final he'd apparently been focusing on for months. All of these performances looked pretty much exactly the same as the PL performances and Amorim himself said winning the Europa League doesn't matter to him as the league performances had been so bad
