Manchester United defender Harry Maguire has stated that although the team has great faith in the new manager, the move from Erik ten Hag to Ruben Amorim will not be simple because of their radically different approaches.
In his ten games since replacing Ten Hag in November, the 39-year-old former Sporting manager, who prefers a back three, has won four, lost five, and drew one.
In the Premier League, United has lost four of its previous five games and is currently in 14th place after struggling to gain any traction.
“The thing is with the managers and the styles, it is not like they have come in and they have similar styles,” Maguire told Sky Sports in an interview published on Sunday.
“They are the total opposite in terms of what they want and what they demand.
“So the transition period is going to be tough.
“We all have great belief in the manager and all his coaching staff.
” I am sure things are going to turn around.”
United will host Newcastle United later on Monday before travelling to play leaders Liverpool on Sunday.
United fell 2-0 at Wolverhampton Wanderers on Thursday.
