A deeply troubling situation for the coaching staff.
Details: Just hours before the Premier League Matchweek 16 clash between Manchester United and Bournemouth, news began to circulate on social media that the Red Devils' head coach had decided to switch to a back four, abandoning the usual three-defender setup.
As the match unfolded, these reports proved to be accurate. The Manchester United coaching staff and club management were left questioning how such information reached the media, given that these tactical adjustments were practiced only behind closed doors and known exclusively to players and team personnel.
Amorim himself commented on the situation:
"That's for you to discuss, not me. As far as I know, you guys found out that we spent this week training with a back four. I have no idea how you learned that, but it's a good topic for your discussions this week."
Meanwhile, the Daily Mail reports that the club has already launched an internal investigation to identify the individual leaking sensitive information about training sessions and tactical plans.
Reminder: Ruben Amorim will not coach Manchester United next season
