Portuguese gaffer Ruben Amorim has kickstarted his reign as Manchester United manager with a 1-1 draw against newly promoted side Ipswich Town at Portman Road.

Football analyst Tosin Alli, while chatting with Briefly News, shared his views on Manchester United's clash with Ipswich while stating the mistake Amorim made in the match.

"Amorim's tactics didn't pay off today against Ipswich, as he made a mistake of deploying two of United's most clinical forwards, Amad Diallo and Alejandro Garnacho, in deeper roles, which limited our attacking play," he said.

Alli advised the former Sporting Lisbon manager to quickly finetune his team before the media descend on him with criticism, just like they did with his predecessor Erik ten Hag.

"This is not Portuguese that they don't play with so much intensity; he should be quick in finetuning his team before the media descend on him," he added.
"The media coming for him might be bad, but I am sure he's aware of that before he decided to take up the job."
