Phil Jones believes incoming manager Ruben Amorim will face significant challenges implementing his preferred back three tactic at Manchester United, especially mid-season.
Jones emphasized that switching to a back three under Amorim will require extensive practice, stating, 'It takes practice on the training pitch... getting the distances right.' He highlighted the difficulty of transitioning to a new tactical system, especially mid-season.
The former defender elaborated on the challenges by recalling past experiences, saying, 'We played a back three under Louis van Gaal, we spent many hours on the pitch... timing of the actions has to be spot on.' He stressed that implementing such changes requires time and consistent effort.
Jones pointed out the necessity for Amorim to assess the squad before making tactical changes, noting that the priority should be to quickly improve results as United currently occupies a troubling 13th place in the Premier League.
