Amorim needs to make a change when it comes to the kind of formation he has been using that hasn't been productive... What is stopping him from using a 4-3-3 formation? Is it the board?
Things worsen with how his club adapted the long ball, and only pray to his forwards to create something for him. It makes his team rarely progressed the ball through the middle.
As the result his team never progressed. Otherwise, His team getting regressed so hard as there's no creativity from their mid and always rely upon their wingers.
It not the board but Amorim, the board can not dictate what formation the coach will use, it result every one wants, and also the best for the club. What I know boards do is to try to sign players but not dictating the formation the coach should use after all it the coach that get sacked when things are not going well at the team.
