Rio Ferdinand names four Man Utd players who doesn’t suit Amorim’s playing style

Manchester United legend, Rio Ferdinand has suggested that four players doesn’t suit manager, Ruben Amorim’s playing style.

According to Ferdinand, the likes of Joshua Zirkee, Matthijs de Ligt, Harry Maguire and Rasmus Hojlund may lack the ‘dynamism and athleticism’ required to suit the playing style that Amorim wishes to implement at Man United.

The former England defender said this as Man United defeated Ipswich Town 3-2 in the Premier League on Wednesday.

“I watched Sporting a few times, in Europe especially. They were an athletic, dynamic team,” Ferdinand said on TNT Sports.

“That was one of the staples of that team, the hallmarks of that good team that was winning things.

“This team isn’t a mobile, dynamic team. If you look through the heartbeat of this team they have other qualities but being physical, having the ability to overrun teams physically – they don’t have that capacity.”

Asked whether Zirkzee fits into Amorim’s playing style, Ferdinand added, “No… De Ligt, Maguire, Hojlund, it’s not their game.

“So I think he needs to find those type of players with the capabilities of carrying out not only tactically what he wants, but the physicality is equally important.”

The win against Ipswich Town takes Man United to 14th position on the Premier League table ahead of their next Premier League tie with Arsenal on March 9.
