Amorim has found a way to "heal" MU's defense

Ruben Amorim, the new manager of Manchester United, is determined to build a solid defensive system with the 3-4-3 formation, a tactic that has become his trademark.

The central defender trio plays a crucial role, not only in defence but also in developing play from the back. Amorim has found the right cog in this system, with three central defenders capable of holding the ball and passing it with intent.

Lisandro Martinez - Suitable left-sided centre-back

Lisandro Martinez is an ideal choice for the left-sided centre-back position in Amorim’s 3-4-3 system. With his direct and accurate passing ability, Martinez can break down opposition defences and contribute to the attacking play. He is a modern defender who prefers possession over defence, which fits Amorim’s footballing philosophy. Martinez played in this position under Erik Ten Hag and is expected to continue to thrive under Amorim.

Matthijs de Ligt - Promising central defender

Dutchman Matthijs de Ligt is the central choice in a trio of centre-backs. Although he is still struggling to find his best form, de Ligt has been impressive of late, especially in recent matches where he has played the full 90 minutes. What Amorim values ​​about de Ligt is his confidence in possession and his ease with the ball. Under the Portuguese coach, de Ligt could return to his best form and contribute greatly to the solidity of the defence.

Leny Yoro - Young and potential center back

Leny Yoro, a young French centre-back, was picked by Amorim to play as a right-sided centre-back. With his outstanding ability to hold up the ball and control space, Yoro proved himself even as a defensive midfielder at Lille. His physical strength, strong tackling ability and speed convinced Amorim that he could play in defence. Although Yoro has only just returned from injury, Amorim hopes that when he is fully fit, he will be an important part of a 3-4-3 formation.

The ideal combination and the real challenge

With the trio of Lisandro Martinez, Matthijs de Ligt and Leny Yoro, Amorim hopes to build a solid defense, combining defense and attack well. However, everything is still in the theoretical stage. Amorim's 3-4-3 system will need time to fit into the current force at MU. Yoro is still in the process of recovering his fitness, so Amorim can use Diogo Dalot to temporarily replace the right center-back position. When this trio of center-backs reaches perfect form, MU will have a strong defense, capable of developing play from the back.

With the perfect combination of Lisandro, de Ligt and Yoro, Ruben Amorim hopes to bring MU an innovative and effective defensive system. The tactical transition will not be simple, but Amorim is ready to experiment and develop the team, aiming for future success.
