‘We believe we can win any game’ – Amorim aiming to keep winning mentality going | OneFootball

Ruben Amorim has said his side feel confident that they can winy any game, having won three of their last four matches.

United’s winning run, which included beating Sunderland, Liverpool and Brighton in recent weeks, came to an end after they drew 2-2 with Nottingham Forest last weekend.

And given the strong run of form, Amorim has said his side have a new belief that they can win any game.

“I think we are more confident. We believe more that we can win any game and we prove already that we can win any game. The last game was tough on us because in some moments we weren’t the team we were supposed to be in every minute. And compare that against Brighton, it was a different thing.

“We cannot forget we have a lot to improve. We are more prepared for anything to happen in a game. But we also know that we have a lot to do and improve to win more these kind of games and consistently win. We are capable and confident, but sometimes struggle in games that we need to do better.”

United last played Tottenham in the Europa League final in May, in what could well have been Amorim’s last game in charge of the club.

As it turned out, it was actually Ange Postecoglou’s last game, even though he won the trophy.

Since then, Thomas Frank has become Tottenham’s manager and he has experienced a mixed start to life in north London, especially at home.

Spurs have only won two of their last six games, and Amorim believes things are different now than they were at the time of the Europa League final.

On what has changed since the final, the Portuguese said: “The characteristics of the players, we have different characteristics in our team, but we also have a lot of players who played last year. We are a better team, we player better and we understand the game better.

“We are more confident. At this moment, we play with a different confidence. We mange better the moments of the game, but if you remember that game, they had that shot on the goal and won the game. I expect a different game. We can play better, but also have a little bit of luck to win the game.”
