Rio Ferdinand tells four Man Utd stars that their game doesn’t suit Ruben Amorim

Rio Ferdinand says Joshua Zirkee, Matthijs de Ligt, Harry Maguire and Rasmus Hojlund may lack the ‘dynamism’ and ‘athleticism’. Require to suit the playing style that Ruben Amorim wishes to implement at Manchester United.

United recovere from conceding a calamitous แทงบอล UFABET ราคาดีที่สุด ไม่มีขั้นต่ำ Jaden Philogene goal to beat Ipswich 3-2 this evening, with Maguire heading home what prove to be the winner at the start of the second half at Old Trafford.

Amorim’s side had appeare to be firmly in the box seat as Matthijs de Ligt struck after. Sam Morsy’s own goal to hand United the lead for the first time in the match in the 26th minute.

But Philogene score his second of the night after Patrick Dorgu was shown a straight. Red card in a breathless conclusion to the first period to give Ipswich hope at the break.

The Red Devils dug deep and held firm after Maguire’s powerful 47th-minute header, though, to leapfrog Everton into 14th place in the Premier League table.

‘Today I’m not frustrated,’ United head coach Amorim told shortly after the final whistle.

‘With the situations of the game, of course you get a little bit of frustrate with the game because we suffered a goal, one mistake and that can happen.

‘But since the first minute I felt that the players were fine, were trying to play.

‘We manage to score two goals and then the sending off change the game a little bit.

‘But the fight that the guys showe… and our fans helpe us a lot so I think we fully deserve the three points today.’

Though please with the result, former United defender Ferdinand argue that Amorim was still yet to deliver what many fans had ‘anticipate’ when he first arrived from Sporting.

‘I think if we’re being brutally honest, there hasn’t the progress that we all anticipate,’ Ferdinand said on.

‘Where he came from, how successful he had and the silverware he brought to Sporting, the anticipation of him coming was like, “Wow! What an opportunity we’ve got now with this young manager”, and it hasn’t transferre here.

‘I sat with him the other day and you can see there’s a desire, there’s a work ethic behind the scenes and he’s nipping at everything to try and get this right and turn it around.

‘But things haven’t smooth for him and he hasn’t manage to get it to where he wants to at this point in time.

‘I think he needs to just get to the end of the season, really regroup and then start building again, building the team and coaching the team because right now they’ve stuttering along and that’s probably being polite.’
