Former England captain Alan Shearer has accused former Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim of “arrogance” after Michael Carrick’s impressive start to his managerial career at the club.
Under the interim management of Michael Carrick, 45 years old, Manchester United has recently achieved a dramatic turnaround with a series of consecutive wins. On the 17th, they defeated 2nd-place Manchester City 2-0, and on the 26th, they overcame league leader Arsenal 3-2.
In a chat with The Rest is Football podcast, Shearer attributed Amorim’s failure to ‘arrogance.’

“What on earth is Ruben Amorim sat doing, thinking, looking at those two performances? I mean honestly, I don’t know what he’ll be thinking.
“It’s absolutely crazy (to not try and change formation). The arrogance to say, ‘No, I’m not doing any other thing. This is my way or the highway.’
“I mean, to not even shift or to accept that this is probably not working, ‘Maybe I should try something else.’
“He put all his eggs into that basket, and if that didn’t work, he was done. And it didn’t.”
