Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim has been in charge of the Red Devils since January .

He has been criticised for lack of style in the Premier League this season .

But he has been able to adapt his methods to the best of his own players.

The long, complex process requires simplicity at the start of the system.

The idea is to dominate with overloads all over the pitch: three centre-backs to outnumber opposition strikers.

The problem is that the system is demanding, so when it doesn't work, the opposition dominate.

In particular, they lack midfielders able to both build play and cover ground.

United have changed from a team that cannot create chances into one that continually miss them, an improvement not reflected in points accumulated.
