Ruben Amorim, who has 3 challenges ahead, gives up Ruud van Nistelrooy on the coaching staff.
It can be said that the Ruben Amorim effect is already being felt at Manchester United. A few hours after landing in England, the Portuguese coach's first decision was made known. Which means not wanting to have a club legend on your coaching staff. More precisely Ruud van Nistelrooy, interim coach who did a good job while Amorim played the last games for Sporting.
Over the last few days there has been much speculation about the role that the Dutchman, the club's former glory, would play alongside Ruben Amorim. The caretaker even said that he wanted to continue at Manchester United in the role of number two. But the truth is that he ended up leaving the English club. The same happened with three more members of the staff who moved from the technical committee of the fired Erik ten Hag. The Daily Star also writes that the legend was “despised” by the Portuguese coach. In turn, Rio Ferndinand, another symbol of the club, is unhappy with the departure of the interim coach. On a different note, the Daily Star writes that Ruben Amorim wants to have dinner with Alex Ferguson and Roy Keane to delve deeper into the club's culture.
Ruben Amorim's 3 main challenges at Manchester United
Sky Sports reports on Ruben Amorim's three main challenges in his early days at Manchester United. One of them is to implement the three-plant system that we usually use. The main problem will be with the wingers who play the runners. Next comes the return of confidence to the squad. It is worth noting that Manchester United have only won seven trophies since 2013, the year in which Alex Ferguson left the club. Finally, it's getting the attackers to score goals. Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee cost the club more than 100 million and together they only have 3 goals this season.
