Man Utd have a terrible home record and Old Trafford is becoming a ground where the opposition like to play.
Harry Maguire wasn't wrong when he pointed out, "Obviously, we can't be starting games like that at Old Trafford." The problem is Manchester United have been doing exactly that for a long time now.
"I think the run of results at Old Trafford has been so poor that I think now the boys have lost maybe that confidence of playing in front of a crowd and things," Maguire said after another scrappy Old Trafford win. Those three wins sandwich five defeats in the last eight games at home. Amorim himself has spoken regularly about the anxiousness and nerves his team and the supporters are feeling at home.
It is also easy for the opposition to defend against. In a way, that is the inverse problem encountered by Erik ten Hag, whose United side were far too open and easy to attack against. Either way the end result is the same, and that is a disappointing record at Old Trafford. Now, that is long gone. Opponents eye up their opposite number with relish, and it's easy to pick apart this team's weaknesses, whether under Ten Hag or Amorim.
