Ruben Amorim has taken over as the head coach of Manchester United, starting his new role on Monday. Despite his first match being over a week away, there is a lot of work to be done before then. The team has shown improvement under the previous coach, but they are still struggling in the bottom half of the league and in Europe.
Amorim has identified three main priorities for the team. First and foremost, he wants to focus on getting results. Manchester United is currently in 14th place in the Premier League and needs to climb the table quickly. They also need to start winning in the Europa League to avoid an early exit from the competition.
The team has been struggling to score goals, with their strikers not performing as expected. Amorim will need to work on getting the best out of players like Joshua Zirkzee and Rasmus Hojlund to improve their attacking capabilities. Restoring confidence in the strikers, especially Marcus Rashford, will be a key priority for the new coach.
Finally, Amorim wants to bring back the intimidation factor at Old Trafford. He aims to create a style of play that is aggressive, fast-paced, and exciting, in order to bring back the fear factor for visiting teams. By uniting the players and the fans, he hopes to create a strong identity for the club, similar to what he achieved at Sporting in his previous role.
Amorim’s success at Sporting, where he won the league title within 18 months, shows that he knows how to get results quickly. His ability to work with strikers and unite a team gives hope to Manchester United fans that he can turn things around for the struggling team. With his focus on results, improving the attack, and creating a strong team identity, Amorim is set to make a big impact at Old Trafford.
