Harry Maguire backs Ruben Amorim after tough start at Manchester United

United go into their Premier League clash against Newcastle United on Monday having lost their last three league games in a row.

However, Maguire says it will take time for them to fully adjust to Amorim's methods because they are virtually the complete opposite of how former manager Eric Ten Hag had built the squad to play.

"The thing is with the managers and the styles, it is not like they have come in and they have similar styles," Maguire told Sky Sports. "They are the total opposite in terms of what they want and what they demand.

"So the transition period is going to be tough. We all have great belief in the manager and all his coaching staff. I am sure things are going to turn around. He knows exactly what he needs to do to get this club back.

"He has come in and done everything he needs to do. He is really demanding.

"He is a winner, so I am sure he will be frustrated because he hates losing games.

"It is frustrating. We want to win football matches and make our fans happy because so far this season it has not been good enough."

Even though the pressure is clearly mounting on Amorim and the Red Devils to turn things around, Maguire says there have been no special targets set.

"We are just doing everything we can to climb the table. We can't really set a target at the moment because we are nowhere near good enough and nowhere near where we want to be in the league table," he said.

"It is really disappointing what we have done until now. Everybody knows that. We know it is not good enough for this club."
