Millions spent on the front line, with the arrivals of Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha, and Benjamin Sesko, had Manchester United fans excited for the new season after the horror of 2024/25, which culminated in a Europa League final loss to Tottenham in Bilbao.
However, the start of the season has not been kind to Ruben Amorim, who is under increasing pressure for a lack of results since his arrival at Old Trafford, which will mark its one-year anniversary this November.
After a 1-0 defeat to Arsenal on the opening day, the Red Devils were leading away at Marco Silva's Fulham this Sunday. Still, they ended up faltering again, taking only a point from Craven Cottage in a game where Bruno Fernandes missed a penalty.
Amorim's stats
Ruben Amorim managed his 29th Premier League game for Manchester United this Sunday, securing just seven wins against Everton, Manchester City, Southampton, Fulham, Ipswich, Leicester and Aston Villa, alongside seven draws and 15 defeats.
According to reports from Abola, his win percentage? A mere 24.13%, and the upcoming schedule offers no relief.
On matchday four, Man United will host Burnley in what is, in theory, a more manageable fixture (though in the Premier League, that's always relative).
After the international break, they face back-to-back clashes with Manchester City (14th) and Chelsea (20th).
Following these trial-by-fire encounters are matches against Brentford and Sunderland before a very difficult trip to Anfield to face champions Liverpool on October 19th.
