Manchester United's dismal season continues as they sit 14th in the table despite a managerial change from Erik ten Hag to Amorim. Carragher asserts Amorim is not to blame, emphasizing the challenging circumstances of his appointment. He argues that the ownership and player performance are the primary culprits. While Amorim’s commitment to his successful back-three system is questioned, Carragher stresses it's essential for team identity, suggesting any deviation might undermine the rationale for hiring Amorim in the first place, hinting that changing his approach could lead to managerial instability.
I think Amorim is probably at the end of that queue if you like. You'd have to look at the ownership and the players there. He's going into a really difficult situation.
Amorim has stayed loyal to the back-three system that brought him success in Portugal, with Patrick Dorgu signed in January to provide some added strength at wing-back.
People keep saying, oh, he's got to change the system.' I don't really see it like that because his whole managerial career and the success that he's had has been based on that system, that's what he knows.
If he goes to something else, they might as well change the manager.
