Ruben Amorim on United’s turning point, ex-Sporting spills all | OneFootball

Ruben Amorim revealed the moment that ended up changing Manchester United’s season. In recent statements to the website ‘StanSport’, the former Sporting coach highlighted Jim Ratcliffe’s interview in October, in which he reinforced his confidence in Amorim’s work.

“That interview really helped calm things down around the club. The noise changed completely and that was very important for the team and for me. It had a huge impact. Not in the way I do things, but in the way people look at what we’re doing. It was essential. It’s always very important [to receive support], but it’s even more important that the fans understand that we have a clear path and that we’re going to keep following it,” he began by saying.

It’s worth remembering that, in the interview in question, the Manchester United co-owner assured that Ruben Amorim and his coaching staff needed to show their work over three years, not immediately, guaranteeing that the coach’s stay at Old Trafford was never even in question.

Next, the Portuguese manager spoke about what he has learned in the Premier League so far: “It’s been very good, I’ve learned a lot. Sometimes things are going well, we’re winning, and then we come up against a different result. People start looking at you differently. Sometimes it’s hard, but we learn a lot. I think I’m a better coach now and I’m ready for the present and for the future.”

At this point, after a more complicated start to the season, Ruben Amorim’s United is unbeaten in five games – three wins and two draws – and sits in seventh place in the table after 11 rounds. In the next round, scheduled for November 23, the Red Devils will host Everton.
