"The new contract, he offered me a new contract!" he joked.
"No, that's a normal thing. To show his support, to explain that this is a long project."
"He's said many times this was my first season. For me, it's a normal thing. I talked to him, Omar, and Jason, trying to see all the data around the team."
"So, the meeting is normal and we've met several times. However, at this time, it's only natural that people pay attention to it," said Amorim.
Meanwhile, Amorim felt motivated by the return of Mason Mount and Matheus Cunha. Both missed a 0-3 defeat at the Etihad Stadium, but were declared fit to appear against Enzo Maresca's side.
Chelsea, who lost 1-3 to Bayern Munich in the midweek Champions League, are eyeing their first league win at Old Trafford in more than 12 years.
Amory is also eyeing a win to ease pressure on his position after a week of speculation following the results against Manchester City.
"It's football and it's probably the club with the greatest pressure in the world. We want to win. Again, you can say anything."
"I think last year I was very critical of the way we played. I think we played well into the penalty box - held on and attacked."
"We need to be more aggressive in the penalty box and more clinical. The rest, I think we are getting better."
"Compared to last year, we were in a better position. However, we needed to win and we lost against Arsenal and Manchester City. The defeat at the start, especially after last season, was a problem," Amorim said.
