Stan Collymore emphasizes that for Manchester United to succeed, their main focus should be on captaincy and leadership under manager Ruben Amorim. With no reliable striker as a reinforcement, the team also lacks consistent leadership, notably from Harry Maguire, who has been hindered by injuries and off-field issues. Collymore expresses doubts about Bruno Fernandes' captaincy abilities, arguing modern leadership requires a different approach than what Fernandes embodies. Without these changes, the club's success may be jeopardized as they navigate the second half of the 2024/25 season.
I think that captaincy and leadership is the major issue that Amorim needs to get to grips with... obviously Harry Maguire was bought in as a leader but he's had off field issues and lots of injuries as well.
In the modern game, a more industrial up and at 'em type of captain isn't necessarily what will work. I don't think Bruno Fernandes is captain material either.
