Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim faces fierce criticism over his tactical decisions. Fans and pundits label his approach at Old Trafford nothing short of “insanity.” His stubborn methods now leave the club in turmoil.
The Red Devils struggle in the bottom half of the Premier League table. They face a season that could mark their worst era in the competition. Every match seems to add to the mounting pressure.
Amorim took charge after Erik ten Hag was sacked, promising a fresh start. He vowed to bring new ideas to Old Trafford. Yet, his impact remains minimal despite high expectations.
The manager clings to a 3-4-2-1 formation, a decision that has drawn fire. Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson slammed the tactic as “insanity.” Teamtalk reported, “I honestly don’t know what Amorim is trying to do.” He added that United must return to a 4-3-3 for solidity.
Amorim’s record stands at nine wins and nine losses in 22 matches. His 22 games also include four draws. The numbers tell a clear story of inconsistency.

His stubborn refusal to adapt has cost the club dearly. He persists with a style that repeatedly fails to deliver results. A fresh approach may finally come during the summer transfer window.
At Goodison Park against Everton, United’s midfield and defense crumbled. Bruno Fernandes and Manuel Ugarte scored late to secure a vital point. The performance exposed the glaring flaws in Amorim’s tactics.
Repeating the same unsuccessful strategies cannot yield success. Antony, on loan at Real Betis, impresses this season, and Juventus shows interest in him. Amorim now seeks to sign a former player known for “excellent” technical ability.
