Rooney Calls for Urgent Change at Manchester United – Blasts Amorim’s “Baby Coach” Mistake

“Wayne Rooney blasts Rúben Amorim’s costly mistakes at Manchester United, warning the manager’s job is on the line after repeated failures in crucial games.”

 

 

 

 

Manchester United’s season has once again been thrown under the spotlight as club legend Wayne Rooney has come out with a brutally honest assessment of manager Rúben Amorim. In a bold statement that has already ignited heated debates among fans, Rooney admitted that his earlier comment about Amorim being a “baby coach” was not an attack, but rather a serious warning about what he perceives as the Portuguese manager’s glaring inexperience.

 

According to Rooney, Amorim has been making one repeated, costly mistake that has not only frustrated supporters but also undermined United’s chances in several key games this season. Rooney went as far as suggesting that unless this issue is addressed quickly, Amorim’s tenure at Old Trafford may come to an abrupt end.

Rooney’s Harsh Words

 

“When I said Amorim is a ‘baby coach’, some fans thought I was just being negative or personal,” Rooney explained. “But no! What I meant was that his decision-making in critical moments shows inexperience. This man needs to be sacked before something good can actually come to Manchester United. Because right now, the way things are going, we are throwing away games we should be winning.”

 

The Manchester United legend, who lifted multiple Premier League titles and a Champions League during his glittering career, pinpointed one particular mistake Amorim has repeatedly committed: poor game management and team selection in decisive fixtures.

Costly Errors in Crucial Games

 

Rooney highlighted that Manchester United had enough quality to secure victories in matches where they instead stumbled, citing the recent disaster against Grimsby Town as the biggest example.

 

“That Grimsby game was shocking,” Rooney continued with visible frustration. “We had them where we wanted, but Amorim’s substitutions and tactical decisions completely bottled it. That game was ours to win, yet we handed it away. And it’s not just Grimsby—this has happened in other crucial matches too. We deserved wins, but instead, we keep throwing them away.”

 

United fans were left stunned after their side failed to put away Grimsby, despite dominating large spells of the game. Critics argue Amorim’s decisions in attack and midfield left the team vulnerable and unable to capitalize on their momentum.

Fans Growing Restless

 

Rooney’s comments have only added fuel to an already blazing fire. Many supporters had already started to voice their concerns about Amorim’s management, particularly his tendency to leave proven players on the bench while experimenting with others out of position.

 

The defeat against Grimsby has been described by many as “the lowest point of the season”, and with United already slipping behind in the Premier League race, pressure is mounting on the manager.

 

Social media has been flooded with fans echoing Rooney’s words, with some demanding a change in leadership before it is too late.

What This Means for Amorim’s Future

 

Rúben Amorim was brought in to restore glory at Old Trafford, but with each passing week, the doubts grow louder. Rooney’s comments strike at the heart of the issue: is Amorim truly the right man to lead Manchester United back to the top?

 

The next few fixtures will prove decisive. If Amorim continues on the same path, Rooney’s dire prediction—that the Portuguese coach could lose his job sooner rather than later—may turn into reality.

 

For now, fans wait anxiously, hoping that lessons are learned and Manchester United can avoid repeating the same costly mistakes that have plagued their campaign.
