Following Manchester United’s 3-0 defeat to Manchester City, head coach Ruben Amorim has remained steadfast in his commitment to his controversial 3-4-3 formation, stating, “If not, you have to change the man.”
The loss marks United’s worst start to a league season since 1992-93.
Pundits and fans have criticized the team’s lack of quality and tactical rigidity, with former captain Roy Keane noting that the team “lack real quality.”
The defeat also highlighted new striker Benjamin Sesko’s struggles, as he failed to register a single touch in the opposition box, while the man he replaced, Rasmus Hojlund, scored on his debut for Napoli.
Pressure is mounting on Amorim from both fans and the new ownership under Sir Jim Ratcliffe.
Despite the external pressure and a clear desire for a change in strategy, the coach is holding firm to his philosophy, leaving his future at the club uncertain.
