Ruben Amorim, the manager of Manchester United, has been quite secretive lately. He recently refused to explain his comments about the team's transfer budget and playing style. This is unusual because he is normally very open with the media. Amorim mentioned that he might need to adapt his preferred 3-4-3 formation because the club might not spend a lot of money. He switched formations during recent matches, first using a back four against Newcastle and then going back to his usual 3-4-3 against Wolves. This change didn't go well, as the team drew 0-0 with Wolves, which is not a great result. Before Amorim's comments, it was revealed that Manchester United decided to stop pursuing Antoine Semenyo. They felt the move wouldn't work out. The club also said they never planned to use Semenyo as a wing-back.
When asked about the club's recruitment plans, Amorim said, \"I don’t want to talk about that. \" He repeated this response when asked about the transfer budget. This has led to speculation about possible friction between Amorim and the club's management. Amorim also mentioned that he sometimes clashes with the club over transfer targets. He believes it's important for the coach's voice to be heard because he knows what qualities are needed for his team. Despite their struggles this season, Manchester United is still in sixth place. They have a chance to move into the top four if they win their next match against Leeds United.
