(3-4-3)/(4-2-3-1): Leny Yoro, Mazraoui and Urgarte positions changed, Mainoo told he’s in the plan- Man United line-up under Amorim as THREE players told they’re not in plan- Ready to be sold in January
Ruben Amorim’s tenure at Manchester United officially began on Monday, with the Portuguese arriving in Manchester shortly after guiding Sporting Lisbon to a 4-2 win over Braga in the Primeira Liga on Sunday night.
The 39-year-old has already made his presence felt at the club’s Carrington training complex, meeting with the likes of Luke Shaw, Mason Mount, Leny Yoro and Kobbie Mainoo.
Amorim has taken charge during an international break, and he will not have the majority of his players back until the end of next week, which makes his preparations for his first match even more difficult.
The Portuguese will take Man United to Portman Road on November 24, with Ipswich Town proving to be his first opponents in the Premier League, and it will be fascinating to watch the highly-rated head coach in action.
For now, Amorim is still waiting for confirmation of his visa, while the club need to reveal which staff members will be joining him at the club, but Ruud van Nistelrooy’s exit after his spell as interim manager has already been confirmed.
Man United have entered a new era under the leadership of a coach regarded to be one of the most talented in world football, and it will be interesting to see what the season holds for the giants of English football, who are only four points off third in the Premier League table.
Here, we looks at how Man United could line up under Amorim, with the head coach expected to make a number of immediate changes to the team.
