La Jue compares Arteta to Amorin? Telegraph: Pure nonsense! Arteta is obviously much better

October 09: In an interview with the Times Business Podcast, Manchester United shareholder Ratcliffe expressed his willingness to give coach Amorim more time, and made an analogy with Arsenal coach Arteta’s early coaching experience.

Sam Dean, a reporter from the British media "Daily Telegraph", wrote an article to refute this: Talking rubbish! The coaching methods of Tashuai and Amorin are completely different. The latter does not imitate Tashuai, but is doing the opposite.

The reporter also listed three pieces of evidence to support his point of view, which are as follows:

Arteta's pragmatism vs. Amorin's dogmatism

After Arteta took over as Gunners coach, it was widely expected that he would immediately implement a possession-based tactical style. After all, he had served as Guardiola's assistant for a long time.

However, Arteta soon realized that adhering to such a system would expose the players' shortcomings and make their situation worse. In his first meeting with the new players, he turned his chairs over and said that was how "chaotic" they were on the court.

Therefore, he focused on building the team from the back line to enhance the team's stability and structure. This pragmatic spirit made Arsenal's defensive capabilities far exceed expectations and also won the FA Cup.

This is in sharp contrast to Amorim's coaching style. Amorim has insisted since taking office that he will never compromise on the 3421 formation.

In other words, Arteta adjusted his tactics according to the players, while Amorim tried to make the players adapt to his tactics, but so far the latter has basically failed.

Comparison of early coaching results

Ratcliffe claimed that Arteta "had a terrible first few years", which is not entirely true, especially compared with Amorim's results. Arteta did struggle in his first few years, but they were never as bad as Amorim's time at Manchester United.

In the early days of Arteta's tenure, the Gunners won the FA Cup and then won the Community Shield. Sure, the Gunners' league results a few years ago were disappointing, but nowhere near as bad as United's 15th-place finish under Amorim last season.

In the first 50 games in charge of Manchester United and Arsenal respectively, Amorin won 19 games and Arteta won 27 games; Manchester United conceded 76 goals and the Gunners only conceded 48 goals.

In addition, Arteta's record against other BIG6 opponents in his first year in office was also better than Amorim.

Treatment of Youth Training Talents

Arsenal's recovery under the leadership of Coach Ta is largely based on the coach's trust in young players, especially youth training players. Saka, Ronaldo, Nketiah, Niles... all get a lot of trust. In addition, Arsenal has also invested in young players such as White and Ramsdale.

At Manchester United, Amorim and Rashford fell out, and Menu failed to occupy the main force. Manchester United also sold Ganacho to Chelsea after falling out with him.

All in all, if Manchester United bosses see Tasmanian's work as a blueprint for Amorim to follow, then they have either completely misunderstood what is really going on in north London - or they need to encourage Amorim to completely change his approach.
