Former Premier League star Jamie Carragher has now explained that the system deployed by manager Ruben Amorim has caused all sorts of problems for Newcastle. Carragher hails Ruben Amorim system Carragher said to the BBC: “It just seems right for Man Utd when you see them play. I think in the last few weeks we’ve seen something different, not just in their performances, we’re not quite sure if it’s a back four or a back five. “Tonight, when you look at the team, whether it’s with the ball or without the ball, it’s a back four. “The strange thing about it is that it’s forcing Newcastle to play a back five and they don’t want to play a back five, they want to play a back four. The set-up by Man Utd has been really good and they’re causing Newcastle problems.” Amorim has improved Ruben Amorim, Manager of Manchester United, reacts on the touch line.

He has recently admitted that he would do things differently if he had the experience he possesses right now. The manager is clearly getting better along with his team. Manchester United have shown signs of progress this season, and it will be interesting to see if they can continue to perform at a high-level and return to the UEFA Champions League at the end of the season. A club of their stature should be competing at that level regularly.
