Manchester United is going through a nightmare season. While the recent humiliation suffered in Newcastle has further accentuated the pressure on Ruben Amorim, now pointed out, Jamie Carragher believes that the responsibilities are elsewhere.<\/p>\n

\n

Manchester United is experiencing a more than laborious season. After 32 days of the Premier League, the Mancunian club occupies 14\u1d49 place in the ranking. If the Red Devils are preparing to play a quarter-final of the Europa League against Lyon (2-2 in the first leg) this Thursday, the recent slap received against Newcastle (3-1), last Sunday, weakened the position of Ruben Amorim. The increasingly criticized Portuguese coach is designated by many as the main responsible for the current discomfort. A point of view that Jamie Carragher does not share.<\/p>\n

“I think thatMorim is probably at the end of the queue,”<\/em> said the former Liverpool defender on
\nMonday Night Football<\/em> on Sky Sports<\/em>.
\n\u201cYou have to look at the owners and players. He will find himself in a very difficult situation. \u00bb\u00bb<\/em><\/p>\n

United must assume his choice<\/h2>\n

Since his arrival at the head of the team in November 2024, Amorim has struggled to convince. His favorite scheme, 3-4-2-1, is slow to bear fruit, and the results are not there. Despite everything, Carragher calls for measure. According to him, the leaders of Manchester United must assume their choice and be patient, they who went to seek the former Sporting coach during the season.<\/p>\n

“We must not forget that he did not want to take the job right away”<\/em>he recalls. \u201cHe wanted to arrive in summer. He made a pre-season, but the results he obtained are not yet sufficient. We do not expect Man United to win every week, we know that it is not a leading team, but it should not be where it is in the standings, even with the players she owns. \u00bb\u00bb<\/em><\/p>\n

Carragher defends Amorim's game identity<\/h2>\n

For the consultant for CBS Sports<\/em>the heart of the problem lies less in humans than in the method. And wanting to give up in Amorim which has made its success so far would be a strategic error.
\n\u201cIt took a little time to set up the system. People are not yet convinced, is this the right decision? It was not he who took him, but the club that hired him because he came with this system, it was his DNA. People keep saying “Oh, he has to change the system”,<\/em>
\nexplains Carragher, before concluding: “I do not see things in this way because his entire career as a manager and the success he has known were based on this system, that's what he knows. If he moves on to something else, you might as well change the manager \u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n
