Premier League Season Deserves a Different Leader Than LinkedIn Management

The sacking of Ruben Amorim as Manchester United manager has sent shockwaves through the football world, but one question lingers: what does it say about the state of the Premier League? The answer lies not in the actions of individual managers, but in the underlying structure of the league itself. Is the Premier League truly a meritocracy, where the best teams and managers rise to the top? Or is it merely a reflection of who has access to the right resources, networks, and influence? Amorim’s departure raises questions about the role of LinkedIn-style networking in modern football management. The notion that a manager’s social media profile and professional connections can make or break their career is both fascinating and unsettling. One cannot help but wonder if this “LinkedIn management” approach is a symptom of a larger issue within the Premier League. Is it time for a revolution, one that prioritizes talent over trend followers? Should we be holding our managers to higher standards than mere popularity? The Premier League has long prided itself on being the pinnacle of English football, but if this season is any indication, there may be more to it than meets the eye. As we reflect on Amorim’s sacking and its implications for the league as a whole, one thing is clear: something needs to change. The Premier League must take a long, hard look at itself and ask: what is truly driving our success? Is it merely the accumulation of wealth, connections, and influence – or can we tap into something more fundamental to the beautiful game? Only by confronting this uncomfortable truth can we begin to rebuild the foundations of English football. The future of the Premier League depends on it.
