Amorim to Benfica? Paul Merson names ideal club for the United boss

Ruben Amorim has been heavily criticized in England. As the coach of Manchester United , the former Benfica player is struggling to achieve positive results, causing fans to revolt. Paul Merson, former Arsenal legend, would like to see the coach at Chelsea.

“The way Ruben Amorim wants to play is worrying. He won't change. He will continue to look at what he is doing and think - 'I got what I got by playing with this system' . So, he will continue with the same tactic,” began the former footballer.

Paul Merson admitted that Ruben Amorim "would be perfect for Chelsea" , explaining the reasons: "They have world-class full-backs, like Reece James and Malo Gusto, and also the best defensive midfielder in the Premier League - Moisés Caicedo. His system would be perfect for these players”.

Paul Merson: "The system is not the most suitable for that squad"

“Look at Manchester United . The system is not the most suitable for that squad. The full-backs are not even close to the required level , they don't have enough quality, and they play a decisive role in the team's strategy. The midfield lacks pace. Everything is against him,” he concluded.

It's worth noting that Ruben Amorim is a name much requested by Benfica fans , who would like to see him return to Luz, now as a coach. However, after the dismissal of Bruno Lage, José Mourinho will be the new coach of the eagles.
