In this episode, we talk about back three formations.

Ruben Amorim loves them, and he’ll be the boss at Manchester United from next week. 

And Simone Inzaghi’s Internazionale, also featuring a back three, beat Arsenal this week, had already drawn with Man City; and are yet to concede a Champions League goal.

So are back threes back? Or is this just a brief moment back in the sun?

And can Manchester United’s current squad adapt to Amorim’s favoured formation?
