3. Getting Worse?
Manchester United’s early promise under Ruben Amorim seems like a distant memory.
Initially, the team appeared more solid, conceding fewer chances and showing better control in games.
However, their form has nosedived in recent weeks, with performances becoming increasingly disjointed and uninspired.
While this decline raises questions, it likely reflects more on the mentality of the players than Amorim’s tactical approach.
The squad has shown a worrying lack of resilience, struggling to adapt to challenges and maintain consistency.
For United to turn their season around, a significant shift in mentality will be as crucial as any tactical tweaks.
4. Time to Adapt?
Ruben Amorim’s footballing philosophy is clear and has proven successful, as seen during his time at Sporting.
However, with Manchester United creeping dangerously close to the relegation zone, it may be time for Amorim to adjust his approach.
While his system has undeniable qualities, it demands players who are both in tune with its nuances and capable of meeting its physical and tactical requirements.
The current United squad has struggled to meet these demands, exposing more gaps than strengths.
A temporary shift to a less demanding system could help stabilize performances, rebuild confidence, and improve morale.
With new signings and a full preseason to work with, Amorim could then look to reimplement his preferred philosophy under better conditions.
5. Lisandro Martinez
Lisandro Martinez endured another tough outing at left centre-back, further highlighting his current unreliability in a struggling Manchester United side.
While Martinez’s skill set can be an asset in a team that dominates possession and creates chances, his vulnerabilities are being exposed in United’s current state.
As the team continues to adjust, Martinez’s form is harming the side more than helping it, raising concerns about his role in the immediate future.
