Some people say that Manchester United has invested heavily in Amorim and it is a lose-lose situation for Manchester United and Sporting de Portugal. After Amorim took charge of Manchester United, the team's Premier League results are getting worse and worse, and Sporting Portugal is hard to win without Amorim, and the Champions League is hard to find.
In the early morning of February 12, Beijing time, in the first leg of the Champions League knockout play-offs, the Portuguese Super League leader Sporting Portugal lost 0-3 at home to Dortmund, which ranked 11th in the Bundesliga. Before the game, many fans and media thought that the Hornets were not good this season, but when they met the leaders of the Portuguese Super League, they still won by 3 goals, which is basically equivalent to half a foot into the Champions League round of 16.
Amorim was unbeaten in four Champions League games with Sporting before being poached by Manchester United this season, winning three and drawing one, including a 4-1 home sweep of Manchester City; After Amorim left, Sporting played 5 Champions League games, 1 draw and 4 defeats, without a win. Sporting Portugal's Champions League record this season, from an unbeaten record with Amorim to an unbeaten record without Amorim, does this show that Amorim's gold content is rising?
