Rúben Amorim continues to face tough times in Manchester. Having a start to the season far below expectations, the former Benfica player has been heavily criticized for his 'stubbornness' in not changing the tactical system. The Portuguese did not remain silent and reiterated that the problem is not related to this issue.

In the preview of tomorrow's match, October 4, against Sunderland, the former Benfiquista began by acknowledging that it is common to be criticized: "It's normal. You can't escape from the results. And then there's the baggage from last season, but last season doesn't matter to me anymore. Regarding this season, we've already talked about it."

"It has nothing to do with the system. And I'm not saying that this team could, or could not, play better with another system. What I'm saying is that when I look at the games we lost, I don't think it was because of the system. That's my opinion", said the Portuguese, when asked about his tactics.

"It's going to be a tough match, they're doing very well. When you watch the games, they draw with one less player in the final moments, earning a point. And then they won on the last play against Brentford, earning three more points", he added, praising the quality of Manchester United's opponent.

Finally, the Manchester United coach - who saw the red devils sign Cristian Orozco - issued a warning to his team about Sunderland: "I think the details are greatly changing the table, so we need to pay attention to that. It's a team that plays very well, it's a clear 4x3x3 system, with many rotations on the wings".
