Rio Ferdinand explains what separates Ruben Amorim and Erik ten Hag

Former Manchester United centre-back Rio Ferdinand believes new head coach Ruben Amorim has the pedigree and charisma required to succeed at Old Trafford.

Ferdinand points to charisma as though Ten Hag lacked that during his time in charge of United. This presumably proved to be an issue with players who couldn’t get motivated by the Dutchman.

United beat Leicester City 5-2 during the week in their first outing without Ten Hag as manager, with Ruud van Nistelrooy standing in as caretaker manager.



Only time will tell if it will be any different under Amorim. Some of these players have thrown managers under the bus before, although I strongly disagree with anyone suggesting that was the case with Ten Hag.

They fought until the end before we all figured that the system we had adapted was flawed for the players available.
