Manchester United was beaten 1-0 by Nottingham Forest on Tuesday and Robin Amorim's decision to start Joshua Zerkzi on Rasmos Holund “crazy”
Robin Amorim was criticized after Rasmus Holund dropped while Manchester United lost to Nottingham Forest on Tuesday. Hojlund finished drying out of 21 games in the last United match before the international break, where he scored the opening match in a 3-0 victory over Leicester.
I also scored while I was in international duty with Denmark, where the back of the net was found in the quarter -finals of the UEFA league with Portugal. However, Amorim decided to drop the attacker of the trip to Forrest, with Joshua Zeruzi replacing.
This step did not succeed in favor of United, as they were beaten 1-0 by Forest thanks to the early goal of Anthony Elanga. Amom said that the decision to start Zirkze before Hojlund was a tactical step, but former English Premier League striker Clinton Morrison described the move “crazy”.
In response to the team's news, Morrison told Sky Sports: “It is crazy. It is crazy. Holund has another time against Leicester, and you want to get confidence, but you put it on the bench and put Zirkze.
“We aim at Hojlund; he gets a good goal against Leicester and you think his confidence will be high in the sky. I know that he may have a different game plan, but this is not good for the center in Hojlund. I don't like it.”

Morrison's comments come after the United Stam legend has claimed that Amorim's tactics are responsible for Holund's conflicts in front of the goal this season. “I think the playing style that hinders Rasmus Holgond,” said Stam to Makthavare.se.
“We do not know how the manager tries to use it in matches and I think he does not get much opportunities to touch the ball and enter the games.
“It becomes a very difficult situation for the attacker because you do not see intersections entering the box and the focus should be to create opportunities for him. If you don't get chances, you cannot prove how quality of the attacker.”
Amorim placed his players after the defeat, claiming that they “helped” win the forests and that they were simply lacking quality in the attack. Amum told TNT SPORTS: “We took control of the game, but we already knew that this team (Forest) could score goals from nothing.”
“When they scored the game, we changed the game a little from what they wanted. We tried with good opportunities, but in the last third, the last pass, it was not the last help there. Then if we had no one we could not score goals.
“This season is like this. We had a lot of shots on the goal, and we pushed the opponent to the last third, but in the last third we had a lack of quality. We needed to win the matches and we deserve more in this game, and this is clear, but this is our mistake and we need to be better in the last third.
“We should have won this game, not even drawing it, but in the end we lost three points. We know that the team's personalities can put one goal in one position they love.
“We have to score two goals to win a match and this is frustrating because it was the beginning of the game. We helped them win three points.”
