The 3-4-3 continues to struggle, but Amorim has insisted he will be sacked before he alters his viewpoint.


'I am not going to alter,' he said after the Manchester derby defeat by rivals Manchester City. 'When I want to change my viewpoint, I will alter. If not, you have to alter the guy.


'Losing faith in your capability to turn the situation around? No, that is not the way. I think in my way and I am going to play my method till I wish to alter.


'My message (to the fans) is that I am going to give whatever, constantly thinking of what is best for the club. The rest is not my choice. Until I am here, I will do my finest. I actually wish to win games.'

There have actually been concerns raised over the system that sees three centre backs play


'As much as the supervisor is stating "this is where we are going", as the outcomes do not come and you are getting beaten by the much better teams, he is making loads of modifications and it resembles they are going round in circles.


'We were told the supervisor needed a pre-season, his own gamers and they have invested over ₤ 200m, so we keep making excuses. When are we going to see signs?'


United are next in action on Saturday night when they take on Chelsea in the Premier League.
