Ruben Amorim defends Man Utd system amid struggles




Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim defends his 3-4-2-1 system amid criticism, citing inconsistency as the main issue for Man Utd's struggles.


“You cannot run away from the results and then your baggage from last season..”



Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim defended his 3-4-2-1 system, saying it's not the root cause of the team's struggles. Amorim believes inconsistency is the main issue, rather than the tactics themselves. He pointed out that the system works on some days but not others, and the team needs to find a way to perform consistently.


Amorim faces mounting pressure after United's poor start to the season, with the team sitting 14th in the Premier League table. The Portuguese coach has received criticism from club legends Wayne Rooney and Gary Neville, with Rooney expressing doubts about Amorim's ability to turn things around. Despite this, Amorim remains focused on the upcoming match against Sunderland.


In preparation for the match, Amorim praised Sunderland's French manager Regis Le Bris, saying Sunderland plays with a clear identity and has done well so far this season. Amorim emphasized the importance of paying attention to details, noting that Sunderland's ability to win and draw games in critical moments has been key to their success.


United will hold a minute's silence and wear black armbands before the match to pay tribute to the victims of a synagogue attack in Manchester that resulted in two fatalities. Amorim has urged fans to judge the team based on their performance on the pitch, saying “It's not time to say, it's time to show.”


Leave Last Season Behind

“You cannot run away from the results and then your baggage from last season. But last season for me doesn't matter. We've had six games this season and we've lost three. We have to look to the games that we lost,” Amorim told reporters.


“I am not saying this team would play better in another system or not, that is not my point. My point is that if I look back at the games we lost, the most important thing when I watch the game is not that we lost because of the system.


“That is my opinion. People have different opinions, that s OK.”




Ruben Amorim described Manchester United's performance at Brentford as “disjointed,” but believes the issue lies in the team's inconsistency rather than his tactics.


“You cannot say one thing that doesn't work when it works on one weekend and on the other weekend it doesn't work. When something doesn't work, it doesn't work every day,” he added.


“When it works one day and the other day it doesn't, then the next day it works really well again, it is something about the way we do the same thing. So we need to do the same thing in the same way every day, and we are not doing that.”


Ruben Amorim's message to Manchester United fans ahead of their match against Sunderland is straightforward: “It is not time to say, it is time to show.” This statement reflects his focus on action over words, emphasizing the team's determination to deliver results rather than making promises.




Amorim Praises Sunderland's Clear Identity

Ruben Amorim praises Sunderland's “clear identity” under French boss Regis Le Bris, who has led the team to fifth place in the standings.


“It is a team that plays really well. It is a clear system with a lot of rotations on the side of the pitch. They know we are going to be under pressure and we need to be able to play with that,” Amorim said.


“It is not just the table and all the results that matters most, but the way they play. They have a clear identity. It is a very good manager and a very good team.”


Manchester United will observe a minute's silence and wear black armbands before Saturday's match in tribute to the victims of the synagogue attack in Manchester.
