In conversation with Gary Lineker and Micah Richards, the former asked the question if Amorim\u2019s preferred five-at-the-back system is the reason behind the club\u2019s poor performances.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"Let's flip it on its head. Back in your (Lineker and Shearer's) day, it was 4-4-2. If you changed the formation to a 3-4-3, how difficult would you find adapting? Imagine saying to you, 'Alan, go and play on the right of a three upfront where you've got to press'. I think (Amorim) is so hell-bent on playing this certain style but the players don't fit the style,\" replied Richards.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Since the arrival of the Portuguese in England\u2019s top flight, the Red Devils have won only three of 11 games in the league. After the loss against Brighton, Amorim bemoaned the nature, and timing, of the goals his side is conceding at the moment and stressed losing so many matches is not acceptable, and went on to state that he believes his side is perhaps one of the worst team in the history of the club.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
