Manchester United's loss to fourth-tier opposition in the Carabao Cup was a historic first for the club. The team was defeated in a penalty shootout, with Amorim not even present to witness the outcome.

According to sources, some players are questioning Amorim's methods and whether he is the right person to lead the team. The issues reportedly stem from his tactical decisions and his ability to manage the players.

Despite the concerns, Manchester United has no plans to sack Amorim. However, there is a sense that he may consider leaving the club if the team's performance does not improve.

There were earlier reports that Amorim had considered quitting the club around the new year, but he was persuaded to stay by the club's higher management.
