Amorim Stands Firm on Philosophy Amid Manchester United's Struggles

Manchester United's manager, Rúben Amorim, has reaffirmed his commitment to his tactical philosophy despite the team's recent struggles, including a 3-0 defeat to Manchester City in the derby. In a press conference, Amorim stated, "I will not change my philosophy. I will continue with my ideas… if not, you have to change the man," emphasizing his resolve to maintain his approach.

This stance comes as United face one of their worst starts to a season, with Amorim's win percentage being the lowest among managers since World War II. The team has struggled defensively and offensively, conceding 53 goals in their last 20 Premier League away games against top-six teams and failing to score in 13 of 31 league games. Upcoming matches, including a crucial game against Chelsea, will test Amorim's strategy. His decision to stick with his philosophy contrasts with previous managers who altered tactics under pressure, potentially intensifying scrutiny if results do not improve.
