“He Needs Players Who Can Match His Style” – Ferdinand on Amorim’s Man U
Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand believes four players might struggle to fit into Ruben Amorim’s tactical approach.
Ferdinand pointed out that Joshua Zirkzee, Matthijs de Ligt, Harry Maguire, and Rasmus Hojlund may not have the level of dynamism and athleticism needed for Amorim’s system at United.
Speaking after Man United’s 3-2 win over Ipswich Town in the Premier League, Ferdinand shared his thoughts on TNT Sports.
“I watched Sporting a few times, especially in Europe. They were an athletic, dynamic team,” he said. “That was one of the key qualities of that squad, and it played a big role in their success.
“But this United team isn’t built like that. They have other strengths, but when it comes to being physically dominant or outworking opponents, that’s not their strong suit.”
When asked if Zirkzee would fit into Amorim’s system, Ferdinand was doubtful. “No… De Ligt, Maguire, Hojlund – that’s not their game,” he added.
He emphasized that Amorim would need to find players who not only understand his tactical vision but also have the physical attributes to execute it effectively.
Head coach of Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone, speaks on team defense and called out a player who needs to toughen up. He shared that Ademola Lookman needs to work on defense.
“Ademola Lookman arrived with great enthusiasm and desire to keep growing. We need him to add defensive work to what he already gives us offensively, because he has that ability,” he then added.
“He’s shown it with the Nigeria national team, and we need him in that role.”
Former football legend Paul Merson states that Mohammad Salah is the greatest winger of all time.
While also praising Bukayo Saka for being the winger in form right now.
When asked in a recent interview, he stated “For the best right now, it’s probably [Bukayo] Saka for his all-around game. I will go Salah, because the numbers he’s put up are ridiculous.”
Former player Paul Merson shares his predictions on this weekend’s Premier League games.
He shared Leeds United vs Manchester City – Prediction: Leeds 1-1 Manchester City.
Manchester United vs Crystal Palace – Prediction: Manchester United 3-0 Crystal Palace.
Arsenal vs Chelsea – Prediction: Arsenal 1-0 Chelsea.
