At a press conference, he launched a sentence that raised some eyebrows. Speaking to journalists, Ruben Amorim suggested that he wanted to compete with the greatest coach in the history of the club. Yes, the very one who shaped Manchester United's legend for almost three decades. A rare audacity in a delicate context, especially after a first nightmarish season.
Because despite a disastrous assessment – 14 defeats in 27 days of the Premier League and a unique 15th place in the modern era of the club – Amorim does not doubt. He aims… twenty years on the Old Trafford bench. “My goal is to stay twenty years. This is what I hope. But I know it will depend on the results ”, He assumed, while admitting that luck, patience and a stable direction will be essential to build over time.
An inaugural fiasco, but assumed support for Amorim
Despite the debacle, Manchester United's management, embodied by Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox, chose to maintain his confidence. Amorim is based on this support to lay the foundations for a new cycle. He rents the long -term vision of ineos and the financial solidity of the club, even deprived of European Cup. An environment, according to him, conducive to reconstruction.
Amorim believes in a deep transformation of club culture. “We have the money, we have history, we have fans. But you need a new mentality “he insisted. With his style of play and his ideas, the Portuguese hopes to restore a clear identity to a drift institution for too long.
Start of the decisive season for credibility
The ambitions are there, but the land will have the last word. Amorim knows that the slightest misstep could rekindle the pressure. It will take immediate results to prove that it is not only a crazy dream … but a long -term credible project.
