Ruben Amorim: Manchester United Is Not A Big Team

Ruben Amorim had to trick Manchester United so he wouldn't be ashamed of big names (Instagram/@manchesterunied).

Ruben Amorim said he inherited a difficult position at Manchester United and described his new team as a big club, but not a big team.

After winning 20 Premier League titles, the Red Devils are the most successful English football club, at the domestic level. However, their impressive history has not been reflected in the results on the pitch over the past decade.

In addition, the Red Devils were in the bottom half of the 2024/2025 Premier League standings when the Portuguese coach arrived.

Manchester United had pushed to ninth in the standings after winning one draw and one win with Amorim.

However, Marcus Rashford and colleagues again slumped to 13th place after the defeat against Arsenal on Thursday, December 5, 2024, early morning WIB.

"We are a big club, but we are not a big team. We know it so it doesn't matter to say it."

"Our players have to understand that this is a very difficult position. We are not one of the best teams in the league."

"We have to say and think about it clearly. However, in our past, our club may be the best in the league."

"So, here we have a problem. We have to focus on small things and small details," Amorim said at a press conference on Friday, December 6, 2024, local time.

The 39-year-old coach's statement was clear to motivate his troops who had left their calculations in the last decade.

That's why, as soon as he arrived at Old Trafford, Ruben was quite harsh on his troops. He did have little time on the training ground and was overshadowed by a tight schedule of matches.

However, he emphasized that one thing that cannot be negotiated is the number of businesses carried out by the players.

He warned the team that they should "run away like crazy dogs" if they wanted to succeed and return Manchester United's big name.

No wonder looking at the existing conditions, Amoram forced his students to study while working to quickly adapt to the understanding of the tactics he brought.

"I think the way we run fast back, the way we run fast forward, the way we fight, we have to be very clear with the team."

"This is the first point we have to deal with. Then, tactical and technical aspects will be discussed later." Amorious said.

"What I see is that they are trying hard and there is still a lot of room to develop. Changing that can sometimes be said to be easy because it's just running."

"However, it was something that was in the heads of the players. If you want to win, we have to do it."

"In fact, with the best starting XI in the world without running, they won't win anything, it's very clear."

"If we want to win the Premier League, we have to run like crazy dogs. Otherwise, we won't win," Amorim said again.

Next, Manchester United must return to a positive path when they host Nottingham Forest on Sunday, December 8, 2024.

The visitors came in a better position in the standings, seventh with a three-point difference from Manchester United.

In fact, Nottingham Forest will play in the Championship (British second level league) in 2022.
