Ruben Amorim has dropped some huge hints over his plans for after taking charge of his first training session this morning. The Portugease boss arrived at Old Trafford last week, but due to visa issues was forced to wait a few days before officially starting work.
He’s now set to take charge of his first match on Sunday, when United face Ipswich Town at Portman Road.
And it seems that the former Sporting CP boss will immediately be instilling the tactics that helped him land two Primeira Liga titles.
Amorim has become renowned for his 3-4-3 formation and demanding his players produce slick, intricate passing. And according to , that was how he set two sides up for a training match at Carrington.
His apparent strongest XI made for interesting viewing. Altay Bayindir was in goal behind a three-man defence of Leny Yoro, Jonny Evans and Luke Shaw.
Antony was surprisingly used as a at right wing-back with the returning Tyrell Malacia on the left side. Casemiro and Kobbie Mainoo meanwhile, took the central midfield berths.
