Manchester United are regarded as England's most successful club, with Sir Alex Ferguson being the central turning point. The veteran coach single-handedly carved the name of Manchester United in England's history until his retirement, but later coaches have been unable to repeat the success. Manchester United have yet to witness a triumphant performance by players and coaches post-Ferguson, with José Mourinho being the only coach to add a European trophy to the cabinet. Manchester United have seen about six coaches after Ferguson, and still, the Theatre of Dreams can not dream of winning the League. Finishing 8th last season and currently in 13th position is one of the club's significant issues. Can the team ever win the Premier League title again?

David Moyes (2013-2014)
Manchester United saw the retirement of their most decorated coach in 2013, after which Sir Alexander Ferguson selected David Moyes as successor. Moyes was Manchester United's Head Coach for about a season when the board decided to let him go. Moyes's achievement with the team in 2013 was winning the Community Shield and leading United to the Champions League quarter-final. With fans and boards dissatisfied with Moyes's performance, he was let go to bring in a new Head Coach who could uphold Sir Alex's glory.
Bet on Football with 1xBetLouis Van Gaal (2014-2016)
Louis Van Gaal became the Head Coach of United and was seen as an improved replacement for Moyes in the club. Winning the FA Cup, a major trophy after post-Ferguson Man United fans were convinced, but a seventh-position finish and failure to qualify for the Champions League sparked reactions from fans and pundits, leading to losing faith in the Dutchman. The club is said not to have supported signing new players for the coach, leading to a bad result.
José Mourinho (2016-2018)
Manchester United hired Jose to bring new ideas to the club due to the dwindling effect of the winning mentality left by Ferguson. Mourinho, mostly called the special one, was brought to the club in 2016; he is regarded as the most successful coach post-Ferguson, mainly because he won a European trophy and finished second place in the Premier League. The coach was let go in 2018 due to internal conflict in the club. During his time with Manchester United, he won the EFL Cup, Community Shield, the UEFA Europa League, and a place in the Champions League.
Bet on Football with 1xBetOle Gunnar Solskjær (2018-2021)
Ole Gunnar Solskjær was a former player under coach Ferguson then but was brought to Manchester United as a caretaker. He later became the permanent Head Coach after José Mourinho and pitched in his own rebuilding and playing style with the team. Ole's playing style was an attack, and he further has the capabilities to develop youth players like Mason Greenwood and Marcus Rashford, who are elite wingers. Despite playing a good ball, Ole’s time was cut short due to a lack of trophies despite reaching numerous finals.
Ralf Rangnick (2021-2022)
Ole's exit ushered in Ralf as interim coach while Manchester United looked for a replacement. Ralf focused on a pressing style of play, but he was faced with unlucky moments when players developed injuries, which made him finish sixth in the season. Due to his position as interim coach, Ralf also encounters issues with players.
Bet on Football with 1xBetErik ten Hag (2022-2024)
Ten Hag was brought in as a replacement for Ole and the next permanent Head Coach for United. Because of his tactical style of play and success at Ajax, Manchester United saw Ten Hag as a rebuilding hope for the team. Finishing third in his first season sent them straight to playing in the Champions League, and winning the EFL Cup after five years of a trophyless tenure lit the fans with hopes. However, Ten Hag's success was cut short due to player injuries and underperformance in matches, leading to an eight-place finish in his second season, but winning the FA earned him a convincing doubt from fans. Ten Hag's last season in United saw a 14th position in the league after a series of draws, which leds to the coach being let go as of 2024 and his assistant Ruud van Nistelrooy being the interim coach.
Ruben Amorim (2024 - Present)
Ruben Amorim was announced as the new head coach of Manchester United and is expected to leave Sporting Lisbon and join the Premier League on November 11th. Leading Sporting to the first league title in 33 years, the young Portuguese coach's arrival at United will hope to replicate success in the league. Fans wonder if the new coach can revive Old Trafford’s glory to what it was once: an arena of fear for opponents and winning trophies, like in the time of Sir Alex Ferguson.
