Manchester Utd Worse Now Than They Were Under Ten Hag, Says Alan Shearer
Manchester United: Manchester United’s 1-3 loss against Brighton and Hove Albion on Sunday was just another in a series of disappointing results for the club. It has seen them sit in 13th place in the Premier League table. Whilst speaking on The Rest is Football podcast, Alan Shearer claimed the Manchester United side under new head coach Ruben Amorim are ‘worse than they were under Ten Hag’.
In conversation with Gary Lineker and Micah Richards, the former asked the question if Amorim’s preferred five-at-the-back system is the reason behind the club’s poor performances.
"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.
