Shearer criticizes Man Utd midfielders after draw in Amorim's debut

givemesport.com

Manchester United drew 1-1 against Ipswich Town in Ruben Amorim's debut as manager. Alan Shearer criticized the performance of midfielders Casemiro and Christian Eriksen, stating they were given "impossible" tasks in Amorim's demanding system. Casemiro struggled significantly, losing possession seven times and making only one tackle before being substituted. Eriksen also had a poor game, completing just 80% of his passes and losing possession ten times. The disappointing performances raise questions about whether Amorim will continue to rely on Casemiro and Eriksen. Alternatives like Kobbie Mainoo and Manuel Ugarte are available, and Eriksen's contract expires at the end of the season.
