It's because they played under Alex Ferguson, like somehow people think his managerial skill was infectious.

True, but there's been a few others over the years that just go from club to club being utter nothings..
Pardew was one. I'd even class Hodgson as a bit of a journeyman too. Potter is well on his way now.
He shouldn't get another job anywhere at all. Not even Whittlesea Zebras.
That said I'm enjoying watching Rangers in this state so hopefully he stays a lot longer
Ange or Amorim first though?
Amorim just won a match so he's doing better than Ange.Ange or Amorim first though?
A managerial rivalry for the ages. But not in the way that it usually goes.
Amorim's pay-off apparently decreases from current 12M after Nov 1st.Ange or Amorim first though?
So he'll likely get pool/brighton/forest.
Flange has got chelsea/b'mouth/united.
So that Forest V Manure game 1st Nov, could be El Sackico, but probably not as chances of fatman getting Ws from chelsea and b'mouth are very slim and he should be gone.
Would be hilarious if it was, tho.
If they sack Amorim on the 2nd Dec, it will save them a few quid as he'd get £8m more if sacked on the 1st Dec or before.Ange or Amorim first though?
Glasner there in Jan would be my guess.
As for Ange, he's gone before Xmas I think. Tough set of games coming up.
Had to be expected, dude is literally the worst manager I've seen, he makes Ange look like prime Poch.

They gotta be trolling their fans
Why? The last time he was there he won the title and stopped Celtic from winning 10 in a row, yeah he was shite at Villa, but in the Scottish league he has a proven track record.Steven Gerrard in frame for Rangers return after Russell Martin is sacked

Don’t think utd under Amorim are anywhere near as bad as forest under ange. They’ve lost to Woolwich, city and Brentford and drawn away to Fulham. The only really bad result is the Brentford one and apart from that they’re doing pretty much what you’d expect them to. Losing in the efl cup was probably what has got everyone so wound up but think Amorim will get the season.
Apart from the Woolwich match it's the manner they've lost though, especially against City they started OK, but once City scored the first goal they just fell to pieces.
True but on the other hand against Brentford they’d have come back from two down if Fernandes had scored his penalty and maybe would have gone on to win. Got done on the counter looking for an equaliser and so lost 3-1. Think they’ll finish at least top 8 but whether that’s enough to keep Amorim in a job who knows.
TBH a lot of them were good managers. A fair while back.
The issue is that, by modern standards in the modern game, Ferguson would be equally as shit. The stuff the 90's united players say about how he did things wouldn't fly for more than a weekend in a modern side - and for good reason. Controlling what cars the players can drive, where they go on holiday, how their hair is cut; throwing stuff at them, going in a mood with them for weeks at a time, freezing them out of the side for petty reasons. It's the exact same reason why the Mourinho disciples all because shit managers at the exact same time that his style lost all effectiveness.
We'll probably see the same from all this pep clones before long. Someone will switch it up back to 4-4-2, everyone will follow, and that whole 3-2-4-1 will be redundant in some way. He's already not the coach he used to be, and neither are those he rubbed off on
