In the 15th round of the Premier League, Manchester United defeated Wolverhampton Wanderers 4-1 away. Manchester United legend Paul Scholes lashed out at the Red Devils' manager and hierarchy in an interview with Camel Live, stating that they don't understand the qualities required to manage Manchester United and simply don't belong at the club.
Scholes said: “I think Amorim doesn't understand Manchester United at all, it's that simple—he's simply not the right man for the job. The core of Manchester United is adventure and entertainment, and that's more important than anything else. At home, you need to keep the fans on the edge of their seats, blood pumping—wingers who can beat defenders, constant shots on goal, and brilliant technical moves. But right now, none of that exists.”
“But do you know where the problem lies? It starts with Manchester United's club hierarchy. They have Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox—they might be excellent in their own fields and very capable at their jobs, but they're not Manchester United people. They have no idea how to sign players who fit Manchester United's identity, nor do they know how to appoint a manager suitable for the club.”
“Amorim—they actually brought in such a manager. If you watch Sporting Lisbon's games, you'll see they play a three-man backline, which was wrong from the start. Manchester United has never played like that, nor can they—years of history have proven that. Even before Sir Alex Ferguson, Manchester United always lined up in a 4-4-1-1 or 4-4-2, with the core being to entertain the fans, but that philosophy isn't in Amorim's bones.”
"Jason Wilcox, Omar Berrada—they might have watched Sporting Lisbon's games, but how could they think Amorim is the right manager for Manchester United? Right now, no one at the club truly understands Manchester United, what it takes to be a Manchester United player, or what it takes to run this club. They might be great people and excellent at their jobs, but they're at the wrong club."
