Amorim had an amazing run at Sporting. People who have been watching them closely recently must have noticed that.    He said an amazing goodbye to his team by getting an unforgettable 4-1 win over Manchester City in the Champions League as well. After all those achievements at Sporting, we are going to start watching him manage a much bigger team like Manchester United.

This is a quite big responsibility as the expectations will be higher than ever. I really hope Amorim has a good start. Of course he would need time to find the best strategies for this team but hopefully his end wouldn't be similar to Erik ten Hag.

At least he will try to start with only what he knows, that's what he said when some media crews asked him. while observing, maybe he has studied at least the performance of the Red Devil players. which players he will keep, and which players are likely to be released. but I agree with you @Pokapoka, that Amorim at least needs time to evaluate and decide which players will stay.
IMO, his initial task at this time, how to make the system he implements can be understood and accepted by the players from Manchester United. I'm sure before Amorim handles Manchester United directly, at least he has some ideas with his observations and experiences so far. like coaches in general, he will give time for United players to perform optimally. if some of them do not show good performance, Amorim will definitely give playing minutes to other players. previously I also said in another thread, that Amorim has technical abilities, that's why he was linked with several big clubs not just Manchester United. but how Manchester United's performance under Ruben Amorim's guidance we don't know yet, especially Amorim and the United players first reach a match to find good chemistry. maybe with that, the probability of United being much better under Amorin is getting higher. well, whether he is able to show it in the shortest possible time, we will know later. at least, maybe Amorin will try to bring United how to qualify for the next phase in this competition. whether or not we are able, we will know later.

The confidence of Ruben Amorim
There is always one thing about Manchester United coaches when they are newly employed in the club, they come with this whole lot of confidence that they will dominate the English Premier League, but the past two of them has proven to be wrong I don't know what the faith of Amorim will be.

I have read two blog posts where Amorim was being over confident that he will make a change, there will be new idea and Manchester United is the heart of EPL and more. I pray he lives upto expectations.

Napoli made a big mistake not maintaining a good relationship with Osimhen,  they thought if he leaves the team they can do better without him. Osimhen is such a talented player, he never stop shining even Galatasaray.

 When he is done with Galatasaray I don't think getting a new club will be a problem for him because he is the kind of player most big team would want. I know Chelsea is interested in having him , since Osimhen is still a young player it will be best if he moves to any Premier league team because with his kind of performance he deserves to be in a team and league that suits his standard.

But at least, with a break like this will allow Amorim to have time to determine the players who will be included in his main squad. At least Amorim is not in a hurry and that will make him good enough to build a team, because basically Manchester United has great players too. So,  if Amorim is really able to maximize the potential of every player  available in the current Manchester United squad,then it will make Amorim successful to make Manchester United have a good performance in the near future. After all, Ruud van Nistelrooy also succeeded in a short time, so Amorim should be  able to improve the  quality of Manchester United too.

Osimhen is a very talented footballer, we can say that he is a real gem. What happened with his transfer was not something we see every day. He should be in one of the best teams in the world right now, but Galatasaray's managers and directors made a very smart move and brought him to Galatasaray. Of course, it won't be for a long time and he will leave the team in a few months, but it was nice to watch him in Turkey

Victor Osimhen at the moment is contracted to Galatasaray and just like he said in a recent interview that he's focused at helping the club win as many trophies as possible before considering his next move after the end of the current season, I also think that's what matters more to him at the moment. The Nigeria striker of a truth haven't hidden his dreams of playing in the English Premier League but considering his lovely relationship with Galatasaray fans and how they've shown him immense support since he arrived the club, I'll not be too surprised if he decides to permanent his deal with the club.

The relationship between Osimhen and Napoli has become very complicated after the transfer market last summer, we don't know who is really wrong in this regard but I think it is the Galatasaray that has benefited from the poor relationship between Osimhen and Napoli at the moment , despite being a loan player but at the moment Osimhen has shown his qualities as a great striker and has had a positive impact for Galatasaray, His desire to leave from Napoli makes Galatasaray as his ladder to move to another bigger team next season, and that is motivating him to continue to perform well this time, maybe Osimhen has been very comfortable at Galatasaray, but I don't think that will detract from his intention to play in the EPL or with PSG in Ligue 1 next season.
So,  Let's see what other drama will happen between Osimhen, Galatasaray, interested clubs and Napoli when the transfer market reopens later.

I partially agree with you. You may be right on Ruben Amorim arrival just before the transfer window but I don't think you are right about him having enough time to evaluate and decide who will stay or leave the club. The next transfer window is in January, I doubt Ruben amorim will be able to evaluate everyone in the squad in such a short time. Right now everybody will want to be in his good books and will play very well so this will make it difficult for him to access the whole players to be able to know how he will reshuffle his squad. I know Ruben Amorim has the technical ability to achieve success at Manchester United but I don't it will be sudden.

Osimhen has a role that I think gives more strength to Galatasaray's front line. If there is an offer between being made permanent by Galatasaray or moving to an EPL club, maybe Osimhen will choose to move to an EPL club. Moreover, if the club has the potential to play in the UCL, it might be a better consideration for Osimhen.
However, Osimhen's contact with Napoli is still long. Maybe there was regret from him when he extended his contract with Napoli where at that time there were several teams who wanted him.

Victor Osimhen not have space left with Napoli after rejecting new contract extend and club prefer him loan to Galatasaray, I don't think have opportunity for him returning back to Napoli after Antonio Conte having Romelu Lukaku keep show his top performance. Actually Victor Osimhen performance very well with Galatasaray after scoring 6 goals of 6 appearance in domestic league and have scoring 2 goals of 3 appearance in UEFA Champion League matches.

Galatasaray still have large opportunity for qualifying to knock out round in Europe League afte collecting 10 points of 4 matches and lead third standings awhile, have four matches left and facing not difficult opponent team I think not problem for Galatasaray get qualify to knock out round by finish at the top eight standings position.

The feud between Osimhen and Napoli made him loaned to Galatasaray for one season, he managed to prove his quality and had high loyalty despite his status as a loan player by making a big contribution to Galatasaray. Now he is still shining brightly despite playing at a different club, but his disharmonious relationship with Napoli makes it very possible for the two to part ways. Osimhen still has a dream of playing in the EPL, maybe he will choose Chelsea over Galatasaray when his loan ends.

I think the answer is clear. He should just leave Galatasaray to play in a much bigger league if he wants to improve his career much more. I'm saying this despite being a Galatasaray fan also.

Otherwise of course I would love to see him staying instead.    I still feel like it is a dream for us. Because it is too difficult to bring world stars to the Turkish Super League at such a young age normally. It was a big opportunity.

Other than Chelsea probably there would be many other big clubs also going after Osimhen while his release clause is €75m.

I totally agree with you. Everyone will be eager to watch Ruben Amorim’s debut match to see how he will perform. Manchester United will have their hopes high on Ruben amorim giving his successful track records and it is expected that he will bring that success to his new club and make them excel once again. I’m sure that all this can happen if Manchester United can be patient with the adjustments Amorim will have to make, they shouldn’t expect early success because in the long run that may not work for them just like it happened with Erik Ten Hag.

Osimhen is a player that add positive value to any club that he is playing in, his contributions will always be felt. Imagine when Napoli was a mediocre club, the presence of Osimhen was able to transform the club the club into a victorious one to the point that they won Seria A for the first time.

I will not doubt if his contributions in Galatasaray is adding value to the club, and what he did for Napoli might also play out in Galatasaray by helping them to win the league. However, this might not be possible because who knows if a club will sign him when the transfer window is open in January.

Galatasaray are currently experiencing a good run in Europe and Turkish League. Their recent victory over Tottenham in the Europa league competition will boost their morale in the tournament. Normally Icardi sustaining an ACL injury and being absent would have been very difficult for the team but with Victor Osimhen in the squad, I don't think his absence will be felt or will affect them negatively in this campaign. Osimhen is a world class striker and is more than capable to lead them to comfortable victories and maybe also the trophies too.

If Galatasaray wants to move up a class, they must sign Osimhen on a permanent basis. Osimhen is a footballer of a different level. His contribution to Galatasaray since his arrival has been enormous. Even though he is the most expensive player in the team, he has never had an ego and does everything he can for the success of the team. Osimhen is in great form at the moment and Galatasaray will have to make all the sacrifices they can to keep him in the team. However, the low quality of the Turkish league is one of the reasons that will negatively affect Osimhen's stay at Galatasaray. Because he is one of the best in the world and he might not want to sacrifice himself by staying in Turkey.

I think this is what will happen right now. Because the fans in Turkey are very passionate and act like they are in love with the Nigerian footballer. Osimhen must have been affected by this and he is making very meaningful moves for the Galatasaray fans. His harmony within the team is also very good. He doesn't seem to have problems like he did in Napoli. More importantly, he seems to have peace in the team. This indicates that a long-term agreement may be close for him. Also, Galatasaray is a very big team and has played for legendary players in world football such as Didier Drogba, Frank Ribery, George Hagi in the past. He should never be underestimated. He is one of the important favorites in the Europa League this year. They showed this against Tottenham.

I do not deny that Osimhen is a player who has very good abilities, but I see it from another side, where he is a player who will perform well if handled by the right coach.
I tried to observe and I said he is like Lukaku. Lukaku is a very great player, but his greatness will be seen if he is in the hands of the right coach and team. He shone when he was at Inter Milan and at that time Conte was the one who handled him. But after he left, he declined very significantly, he was even considered a player who had no abilities and was considered a failed transfer when recruited by Chelsea.

I admit Osimhen has a very good talent quality but the problem is if we associate this with Napoli, actually Napoli itself has a problem with the player. So Osimhen performed a little bad when he was with Napoli at that time and Osimhen feels free now to part with Napoli who do not appreciate his hard work.
And now I hear that some big teams are still eyeing him and I am sure sooner or later Osimhen will choose to join a big team in a more competitive league.
Surely this season Osimhen will continue to fight to get better achievements to attract the attention of other top teams.
