This is incredibly unfair to Carrick and the team. Not to mention, incorrect.
Mike@Mike87_United
Amorim was trying to coach us to play a different style for the long term. Carrick is not doing anything for the long term, he’s doing what he knows these players are comfortable with for the best possible short term results. It takes barely above room temperature IQ to grasp.

Fair summary. Why throw good money after bad?
Adam Crafton@AdamCrafton_
If Man Utd don’t have much to spend in January, that is to a significant extent because Ruben Amorim took a team four points off fourth to 15th in the table, tanking PL prize money, and then lost against a terrible Tottenham team to miss out on CL, & still spent £200m last summer

Meanwhile, more turnstile chaos at Old Trafford with minutes to go until kick-off (pictures sent via ST-holder friend) #mufc

Amorim’s supporters?
Henry Winter@henrywinter
Ruben Amorim’s supporters argue that it is not the system that's at fault, it’s individual players not doing their jobs or simply making mistakes. But the system clearly doesn’t help them. Forcing centre-backs like Harry Maguire to play a high-line exposes his lack of pace. Not his fault, it's Amorim's. Luke Shaw is not a left-sided centre-back. Bruno Fernandes is not a central midfielder. Most players don’t look comfortable with 3-4-2-1. The defence looks exposed, not enough pace, too many gaps and no cover of any substance. Amorim’s stubbornly sticking to his system when 4-2-3-1 would work. The best managers adapt, work to their players' strengths. United’s defence would look more secure as a back-four of Mazraoui, De Ligt, Yoro, Shaw, shielded by two from Mainoo/Ugarte/Casemiro, Bruno restored to his preferred 10, flanked by Mbeumo and Cunha serving Sesko. But Amorim is too stubborn to change. Amorim also has to take culpability for vulnerability at set-pieces and failure to know how to respond and regroup when the opposition turn the ball over. Where is the coaching? They’ve upgraded everything at Carrington except, it seems, the coaching. Amorim was outwitted by Keith Andrews, who was managing only his 8th game. Andrews just saw the centre-backs’ vulnerability and unleashed pace. Amorim’s tactics are clearly at fault. Amorim says his players needed “more personality to control games”. But his system inhibits them. His questioning and demeanour can hardly inspire them. He's clearly a good man and at Sporting showed he was a decent coach. But this stubbornness may cost him his job. That said, it's all very well this increasing clamour for change but who? Who could United bring in? Most elite head coaches are all embedded at teams with better squads at better-run clubs. United are still United, still huge, still big payers, and should still attract a decent coach. But who? #MUFC

@laurennnn0607 Moyes was unquestionably the biggest mistake. The LVG clear out after MK Dons and resigning Ronaldo the other big moments for me
English
@OhCheesesChrist Yes, I agree. They didn’t test it properly which led to loads of these issues. I think the failure of testing a bigger issue than comms failure (though getting both right would be nice)
English
@NickH_MUFC But it didn't, NFC testing had already taken place on a smaller scale, yet we had all sorts of issues on Sunday.
English
There were a lot of NFC issues yesterday. Some were down to user error (phones not set up correctly before arrival), but others were more serious — red flashes, no flashes at all, or messages saying tickets were already scanned.
Queues to resolve these problems meant many fans missed the first half.
The challenge with NFC is that every turnstile has a reader, but phones all work differently. The exact spot you need to tap varies not only by manufacturer but also by model. And with the readers having a short range, alignment is crucial.
This guide is a few years old, but it’s still useful for finding the best place to tap your phone:

Could the club do more to help? Without question. The Ticket Office needs proper resourcing — the decision to reduce the number of staff has been a mistake in my opinion, and that needs addressing ASAP. On top of that, communication needs improvement so that we supporters know what is and isn't important when we receive emails, and the staff at the turnstiles were left unsure of how to deal with the issues.
From a communication perspective, the club could do far more around NFC tickets using the same Club app we already use to access the stadium. They manage to push endless adverts for the new shirt, so why not use it for something actually useful? The app could easily recognise season ticket holders and trigger a pop-up with key information, backed up by push notifications to keep fans properly informed.
The app feels built around how the club wants us to use it, rather than how supporters would actually find it simple and useful.

@josephmdurso Allow one drink at a time, limit to specific stands and don’t sell from min 10 - 40 solves a lot of problems.
Would welcome steps to change policing culture which consistently criminalises football fans
English
Do any matchgoing fans actually want this? Or some sort of Tory idea-generator to appeal to a mythical working man.
Pints and watching football in the stands are two of my favourite things, but this is obviously a bad idea.
Hugo Gye@HugoGye
Tories are pushing to allow football fans to drink during matches (as is allowed in eg rugby and cricket). They say, 'This ban is stuck in the 80s and it is time to back responsible fans and boost our clubs.' Amendment to Football Regulator Bill would kickstart a consultation.
English
Can we ban him from Old Trafford too?
