Ruben Amorim on Man United's Tactical Approach
Ruben Amorim, the Sporting Lisbon manager, has claimed that Manchester United are "stealing" tactics from other Premier League teams. He pointed out how United have adapted set-piece strategies similar to those of their English rivals.
"They are copying and stealing tactics from other teams in the Premier League," Amorim said.
This comment came in the context of contrasting United's tactical style with other clubs, notably Arsenal, who are among the league's most prolific set-piece scorers.
Match Performance Insight
During a recent match, Manchester United struggled to generate clear chances in the first half. Their Expected Goals (xG) metric from open play before halftime was notably low, indicating a lack of offensive creativity early in the game.
Despite this, United have nonetheless become effective from set pieces, rivaling Arsenal for set-piece goals.
Set-Piece Effectiveness
Manchester United's growing proficiency on set pieces highlights their tactical evolution. Their ability to score from these situations places them alongside Arsenal at the top of the Premier League in this aspect.
Ruben Amorim criticizes Man United for adopting rivals' set-piece tactics while the team shows strength in set-piece scoring despite an underwhelming open-play offensive display.
