Amorim Believes United Must Always Fight for Titles
Manchester United have long struggled to showcase their best form, but new head coach Rúben Amorim remains ambitious. The Portuguese manager is determined to lead the Red Devils to Europa League glory.
The 36-team Europa League group stage concluded on Thursday, with United securing a direct spot in the Round of 16. A 2-0 victory over Steaua Bucharest ensured their qualification, finishing third in the league phase with 18 points from six wins in eight matches.
United appointed Amorim as their head coach after sacking Erik ten Hag. However, under the new leadership, the team has struggled to find consistency. Despite his best efforts, Amorim has suffered five defeats in his first ten games in charge—an unwanted record not seen at United since Walter Crickmer in 1932.
Lately, though, United have shown signs of improvement, securing three consecutive wins. This has given Amorim hope for a turnaround.
After the victory against Bucharest, he emphasized the importance of maintaining United’s winning mentality:
“No matter the situation, a club as historic as Manchester United must always fight for trophies.”
He remains confident in his team’s potential:
“I believe we can take it game by game and win the Europa League. It’s our responsibility—when you’re at Manchester United, you must fight for silverware, no matter the circumstances.”
“At this stage of the competition, anything is possible. United can prove they are capable of beating anyone.”
Amorim also highlighted the importance of time in building chemistry within the squad:
“Training together, building connections between players and staff, fostering relationships—these are crucial for our success.”Amorim Believes United Must Always Fight for Titles
