Manchester United is festering from the inside.
The British Daily Mail urgently reported on the 18th (Korea Standard Time) that Manchester United is being divided internally, saying, "What do the Manchester United star group think about coach Hoobeng Amorim's tactics and the big questions the club will face this summer?"
At the end of October last year, Manchester United finally replaced coach Erik ten Hag. Amorim, a rising leader in Sporting Lisbon, was appointed to replace Ten Hag. Portugal's young leader, Amorim, was considered the right man to lead the new United.
However, even after manager Amorim took the helm, Manchester United has not been able to rebound. He has nine wins, three draws and nine losses in 21 games so far. What is worrying is the performance in the league. Manchester United is now on the verge of having to worry about falling to 16th place in the league, as the league ranking has fallen further than under Ten Hach.
There are many reasons for Manchester United's poor performance now, but one of them is manager Amorim's lack of tactical flexibility. Manager Amorim is sticking to Plan A's 3-4-3 formation. Currently, there are many evaluations that the composition of the team is not suitable for the 3-4-3 formation, and manager Amorim is continuing to push the decision that he can succeed only by raising the completeness of Plan A in the end.
An internal division appears to have occurred in this area. The Daily Mail said that even with his worst league performance since 1974, Amorim's message that he would not compromise over his tactics was clear. But some players began to lose faith in Amorim's system as results and performance deteriorated," he said.
Then "Amarim is still supported, but confidence in his way has inevitably begun to diminish. The disgruntled team believes that even if Manchester United wins, it is largely dependent on individual skills or lucky moments rather than tactical wins. "Some players have already explained that their trust in Amorim has collapsed.
In a crisis, it is almost impossible to expect a rebound from a team that is collapsing from the inside. With the crisis united to overcome, some players already seem to be trying to fight with coach Amorim.
Despite the recent sluggish results, Manchester United's leadership's trust in manager Amorim is known to be absolute. Players who are questioning and unhappy with Amorim's system are likely to be cleared in the upcoming summer transfer window. Manchester United has already made such a move in the winter transfer market.
However, coach Amorim also needs to prove that his current method is the right direction to give trust to fans. If this situation spreads seriously, coach Amorim's future cannot be bright at all.
