WAITING FOR A RESURRECTION
The 5-2 victory against Leicester City (Round 3 of the English League Cup, early morning of October 31st) made interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy one of Manchester United's most impressive managers to start. At Old Trafford, the "Red Devils" dominated their opponents, attacking sharply and diversely. The departure of manager Erik ten Hag did not shake MU; on the contrary, the red half of Manchester played even more passionately and freely.
MU wins their first game after manager Erik ten Hag was sacked.
Goalscorers like Bruno Fernandes, Casemiro, and Alejandro Garnacho have all faced heavy criticism recently, especially Bruno. The 1994-born midfielder, wearing the captain's armband and tasked with leading the play, has performed poorly with only 2 assists in 11 games since the start of the season, and has even received red cards in two consecutive matches. However, against Leicester, Bruno scored 2 goals and provided 2 assists.
Manchester United's overall resurgence (from individual players to the collective) is a consequence of the common "change of manager" effect in football. A team, or a few players, can explode with excitement as soon as they have a new manager. The reasons for this effect are numerous: players are freed from extreme pressure under the previous manager, eager to prove themselves to the new manager, and enthusiastic about new training methods or tactics. When Ole Solskjaer replaced Jose Mourinho, Manchester United started with a 5-1 victory over Cardiff City in the Premier League, and then went on to beat Paris Saint-Germain to reach the Champions League quarter-finals.
However, fans remain concerned about one thing: the effect often comes with unsustainability. Solskjaer's reign, like that of other Manchester United managers after Sir Alex Ferguson, has ended in failure. For the past 10 years, MU has failed to build a solid foundation, always being in a state of rebuilding whenever a new manager takes over. Therefore, those who love MU are eagerly awaiting a victory after sacking the manager, hoping it will be the start of a spectacular revival.
EXIT
Manchester United are in contact with manager Ruben Amorim. The strategist, born in 1985, is highly regarded for his modern thinking, analytical skills, and ability to plan strategies for the team. Amorim is considering the offer and may soon agree to join MU. The "Red Devils" remain one of the biggest sports brands in the world, and a rare find in football: despite poor results, they still generate consistent revenue.
However, like Amorim, every manager before arriving at MU was highly regarded. David Moyes was Sir Alex's choice, Louis van Gaal was a good foundation builder, Jose Mourinho was a trophy-winning specialist, Solskjaer understood MU's identity, and Erik ten Hag had a clear and firm philosophy… But all of them failed, despite being given the opportunity for at least two seasons.
Manchester United's problem isn't just the head coach, but the core of the team, from the top leadership to the coaching staff. Look at Manchester City and Liverpool's success thanks to Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp. That's true, but it's not enough. These two teams have built a very solid foundation, with a leadership team possessing vision, class, and a shared philosophy, along with a coaching staff, a brilliant scouting and analysis department, and a consistent squad with a clear playing style and direction (attack and control, pressing or counter-attacking). Mikel Arteta's Arsenal, even though they started later, are now ahead of Manchester United.
To succeed, football teams need many things to come together. Spending big on transfers or changing managers are just the final and most obvious steps. Manchester United spent a decade pursuing flashy things under the Glazers. Now, with INEOS, things have to be different. Whether Ruben Amorim or Ruud van Nistelrooy is the coach, the important thing is whether MU can abandon everything to rebuild from the ruins, which requires a lot of time and money. If they find the right coach and are willing to start over, MU will see the light, even if it takes many years like Liverpool or Man City. But it will be a real light, not a flicker in the tunnel.
