🚨🚨: Sir Alex Ferguson on Ruben Amorim: “At some clubs, you need only to lose three games in a row and you're fired. In today's football world, with a new breed of directors and owners, I am not sure any club would have the patience to wait for a manager to build a team over a four-year period. Winning a game is only a short-term gain – you can lose the next game. Building a club brings stability and consistency."
Three years later, in 2015, Ferguson spoke to ESPN and maintained that by sticking with a manager, "you get consistency and you get success."
There's no evidence that sacking a manager gives you success," Ferguson said.
"But there is evidence at Manchester United, at Nottingham Forest, at Arsenal that [if] you retain the manager for long periods, you get consistency and you get success."
What happens next with Amorim remains to be seen, but based on his previous quotes, it’s fair to say Ferguson believes he should be given at least some more time.
