Ruben Amorim has officially stepped into the role of manager at Manchester United, taking over on November 11th. In his first game as boss, the team played to a 1-1 draw against Ipswich Town. Amorim has a unique philosophy when it comes to managing, and he admits that it will take time to turn the team around, especially since they are currently sitting in the bottom half of the Premier League standings.
As he settles into his new position, Amorim is expected to bring in some of his own players, including former Sporting Lisbon player Viktor Gyokeres, who has been heavily linked to a move to Manchester. The team is in need of reinforcements, especially in the attacking department, as they have only scored 13 goals in 12 league games. There are also concerns about the recent signings of Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee.
One former Manchester United player, Lee Sharpe, believes that Amorim should consider bringing back Danny Welbeck to the team. Welbeck, who started his career at Old Trafford, was sold to Arsenal in 2014 and has since been playing for Brighton, where he has impressed with six goals and two assists in just 12 Premier League games this season. Sharpe believes that Welbeck's experience and current form would make him a shrewd and unexpected signing for the team.
Sharpe also expressed his doubts about Gyokeres, despite the striker's impressive goal-scoring record this season. He believes that while Amorim could bring out the best in him, he may not be the best fit for the Premier League. Sharpe suggests that the team should consider other options, such as Liam Delap from Ipswich, who he believes is a fantastic player.
In his first game in charge, Amorim chose to play Marcus Rashford as the lone striker, with Hojlund and Zirkzee on the bench. Rashford delivered with a goal in just two minutes, but Sharpe believes that his best position is actually on the wing. He feels that Rashford is more suited to facing defenders and cutting inside with his right foot, rather than playing with his back to goal. Sharpe also believes that Rashford would benefit from more coaching if he were to continue as a number nine, and he predicts that Amorim will eventually move him back to the left wing once he has found the right balance for the team.
Overall, Sharpe believes that Amorim has a tough task ahead of him, but with the right signings and tactics, he can turn things around for Manchester United. Only time will tell how Amorim's philosophy will impact the team, but fans are hopeful for a brighter future under his leadership.
