I just like to post these data from time to time to puncture the mythological aura of mid 20th c protests. They were less popular than pretty much any 21st c mass action & people criticizing them used the same lines. Protest is about people coming together, shaping narratives, & building power.

How so? Each time they are countered it can be a goal. Can’t defend a set piece at all. Buildup is just CBs passing to each other and the GK at walking pace. I’m sure it’ll improve in time but it’s ok to say it’s really bad right now!!
I’ve been encouraged by some of the things I’ve seen from Amorim so far. United do look better organised and seem to be playing the ball quicker. Still, though, all this is undone by the totally bizarre things the players do. Not sure any amount of coaching fixes it

A big part of that is that every opposing team is literally faster and taller than us.

Tbf 18th vs 12th would prob be a close game in any league.
Can’t imagine the 18th placed team in the Primeira Liga gave Sporting a game with this level of intensity. Welcome to United, Ruben.
