“The events surrounding Amorim are reminiscent of the situation with Maresca. Currently, in the football world, it is sports directors who have the most power.
If a mentor overreaches, especially in a public space, and criticizes management or top management, the consequences are immediate.
Therefore, the decision did not shock me. I was surprised only by the rapidity of the process, because due to the busy calendar and the large number of matches, now is not the best moment for the rotation of the coach.
However, in my opinion, this clearly demonstrates modern football trends. The sporting directors of Chelsea, Manchester United and probably the other top teams in England now react instantly to any cryptic insinuations in the media or direct criticism of the club by the coach,” Carragher noted.
