Four wins in 14 Premier League games with Ruben Amorim football. The Portuguese from about a total transition to his system from the start, with no run-in for the players. After a bunch of games without a win, Amorim repeated the message: “I’m not changing”. Amad Diallo and Lisandro Martinez are two players who have adapted to the 3-4-3 system and have emerged as match-winners. With both out and after the dismal loss to Tottenham that dragged United down to 15th in the table, the doubts come.
We’ll take “have lost the dressing room” messages with a grain of salt, but it would be surprising if Man United players aren’t d… tired of losing games and being laughed at in England – and all over the world.
The Daily Mail’s sources claim some players have lost the trope of Amorim’s 3-4-3 system and believe the few victories come more from luck than through Amorim’s tactical innovations. A “source from the locker room” claims there is a consensus after the victories that “We got away with one but we might not be so lucky next time.”
If United players lose confidence in the manager’s plan, we all know where this ends.
