Diogo Dalot was invited to comment on Manchester United's transition from Ruben Amorim's leadership to Michael Carrick. According to the perspective of the former Porto full-back, there aren't significant differences between the former Benfica player and the British coach, despite the different results.
"If we look closely, things aren't that different from what we did with Ruben. With the ball, we continue to build play with three players. Without the ball, I would say the difference is that, instead of playing with three central defenders, we now play with two and build a line of four with two full-backs", said Dalot, in statements to DAZN Portugal.
"But we also end up defending with five players at the back, because one of our wingers tracks the opposing team's full-back if he is more offensive. In other words, if we look at the individual pieces of the game, we won't see that many differences", added the Portuguese, one of the red devils' captains.
"What we can notice is the different player profile. Currently, we are playing with one less defender and another player who is a bit more offensive", acknowledged the Portuguese international, pointing out the main difference between Ruben Amorim - who has been linked again with Benfica - and Michael Carrick.
"For me, at the end of the day, what really counts is the result, and with results, when we win, confidence changes. As I often say, when confidence is high, with the quality of players we have, sometimes it's not even necessary to say much for the players to go out on the field and play well", concluded Diogo Dalot, to DAZN Portugal.
