Ruben Amorim finds himself in a precarious position at Man United following a disappointing 3-1 loss to Brentford, leaving the Red Devils in 14th place in the Premier League. Despite this, the club’s management continues to support Amorim as they prepare to face Sunderland, a newly-promoted side currently sitting in fifth place with 11 points.
Facing Sunderland at Old Trafford was once seen as an opportunity for United to secure a win, but given their recent struggles and the impressive form of the Black Cats, the game is now looking more challenging than expected.
Former player Chris Sutton predicts a difficult match for Man United, foreseeing a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Sunderland. Sutton criticized United’s defense, particularly highlighting mistakes made by Harry Maguire in the previous game. While Amorim faces scrutiny for the team’s performance, Sutton also pointed out the shaky goalkeeping situation and suggested that newcomer Senne Lammens could make his United debut.
As the pressure mounts on Amorim, changes in the lineup may be imminent, with potential replacements for underperforming players like Maguire and opportunities for young talents like Kobbie Mainoo. This upcoming match against Sunderland will be crucial for Amorim and his squad as they strive to turn their season around and secure a much-needed victory.
