JAKARTA - Ruben Amorim said Manchester United had to suffer for a long time before his method helped the club enjoy success again after a 1-1 draw at home to Ipswich Town, Sunday, November 24, 2024.
These results thwarted Amorim to win in his debut match as the new coach of the Red Devils.
The opening goal of Marcus Rashford after 81 seconds of the game has gave a good Manchester United at Portman Road.
However, the equalizer goal Omari Hutchinson confirmed one point for the Kieran McKenna team.
The host can actually win if Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana does not make two important rescue.
Despite having less than a week to practice with his new squad in Carrington, the former Sporting CP coach applied his favorite 3-4-2-1 formation and said it caused his players to think too much about their performances.
However, Amorim insisted that he would remain loyal to its principle even though it would cause more suffering until his tactics paid off.
"I know this is frustrated by supporters, but we change a lot at this time with many matches."
"We will suffer for a long time and we will try to win the match, but this will take time."
"We have to win the match, but we can lose if not because of Onana. So, I think we have to understand that and think and be pragmatic that the players have two days to practice to change so much."
"It's hard for players in three days to overcome everything with new ideas," Amorim said after the match.
Ruben Amorim said whether or not the system he brought depends on the player's mentality.
The principle of Amorim requires the willingness of the players to get out of the comfort zone alias from the habit of being supported by Erik Ten Hag.
Therefore, coming out of the comfort zone and Bernai takes risk is something that Amorim always reminded when he arrived at Old Trafford.
"I think that's why I was brought here in the middle of the season. We tried to overcome the things they used to do (under Erik Ten Hag)."
"Next year at the same stage, we will be here with the same problem or we from now on, take a little risk."
"We suffer a little and next year we will be better at this point so we have to take a little risk."
"The (players) think too much because we change too much with two exercises now without space to improve the ability in training."
"What I understand today is that they are trying. They really try. In fact, in difficult times, I feel they do the things we want."
Amorim further said that he had told his players to stop doing what was done under the previous regime.
Some details have been changed Amorim in his inaugural match with Manchester United. Call it a change for Diogo Dalot's wing back.
The step was taken to make the Portuguese coach system run well later on and the players found chemistry.
"Some details, they used to pass the ball and progress, even central defender. Now, they have to retreat. Things like this. They are starting to advance."
"Dalot did it, passing the ball to the center back, entering the middle, playing as a midfielder, now he must stay in this position."
"When we listened a lot of you that Manchester United did not have a structure, we will have a situation (for) you see the structure, but it is not smooth."
"It's like the steps. We have to enter the structure. When they start thinking about the structure, they will play much better."
"However, we need time to do that. During this time, we have to win the match. That's very important and I know that," Amorim said again.
In addition to changing players' details, Amorim also reminded the importance of changes in mindset.
No one else can think about the status of core players or not. According to him, all players are as important for the team.
Therefore, all players must understand the overall amorim system so that anyone who plays, the system can run well.
Amorim did that after seeing the busy schedule that Manchester United would live. The new mindset will help the coach when rotating.
Manchester United will face the Premier League match, the Europa League, and Carabao Cup in the next few weeks.
Amorim said some players will be expelled from certain matches so they can practice with new methods in the training ground.
"We have to find a way. I think the only way to do it is we have a match and players who don't play will practice."
"Everyone will play, everyone will be on the bench. So, they feel the game, but they need to practice."
"With this schedule, we need to rotate the team so we will try to use it to practice, improve the team, and win the match."
"I think this is the only way some players will play, several players the next day will work on our ideas, and then they will change their position," said the Portuguese coach.
