Ex-Liverpool star suggests Amorim exit could be best for Man Utd

Amorim, who has recorded just 16 wins from 41 matches since arriving at Old Trafford, has reportedly offered to step down should the club's leadership no longer have faith in his project.

In his latest Telegraph column, Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher pointed to a growing disconnect between the coach's tactical preferences and United's broader needs, warning that continued support for the current coach could come at a high cost.

"With Amorim, it's not merely about backing a manager – it's about embracing a footballing philosophy that is relatively rare among Europe's top sides," he wrote.

"His 3-4-3 system demands a specialised squad, particularly in wide and defensive positions, and would require significant investment."

Carragher added that should Amorim underperform again next season, any new manager would likely abandon the current setup, leading to further upheaval.

"It risks being yet another case of scrapping a project mid-way and spending a fortune all over again. At some point, United must ask whether the foundation they're building is solid – or if they're simply repeating old mistakes with a new face," he added.
