Rio Ferdinand’s advice to Ruben Amorim: It’s not rocket science (video) | OneFootball

Rio Ferdinand gave an important suggestion to Ruben Amorim. At a time when the former Sporting coach has been criticized by several prominent figures from Manchester United’s recent history—such as Wayne Rooney—the former Red Devils center-back recommended that the Portuguese manager change his playing style to a 4-2-3-1, instead of his usual 3-4-3.

“If they played in a 4-2-3-1, I think all the players would be in positions where they’d feel super comfortable. Two of the three midfielders, probably Casemiro, Ugarte, or Kobbie Mainoo, could play there,” he began on his podcast, Rio Presents.

Next, Rio Ferdinand added the players who could occupy the most attacking positions in the Manchester United team: “And then you’d have three players up front, any of the quintet Diallo, Mbeumo, Bruno Fernandes, Cunha, Mason Mount, and Sesko could play as striker.”

“All of them can play anywhere in attack and they’d all be happy. I don’t think this is rocket science. I think probably everyone sees and thinks the same,” concluded the former Manchester United center-back.

It’s worth remembering that Ruben Amorim’s Manchester United has three defeats and one draw in the league, with only two wins so far in this Premier League campaign. The English league is led by Liverpool with 15 points, who also lost this round against Crystal Palace.
