""It is really good to hear it but he tells me all the time, sometimes with a message after games - but you know, I know and Jim knows, that football is not like that," said Amorim. "The most important thing is the next game. Even with owners, you cannot control the next day in football.""
""It's not just a thing that people talk about, I feel it every day. It's really good to hear it because it helps our fans to understand the leadership know it is going to take a while." "But at the same moment, I don't like it because it gives a feeling that we have time to work things out. I don't want that feeling in our club.""
""The pressure I put on the team or on myself is so much bigger [than that from outside]. In football, especially in big clubs, you need to prove yourself every weekend.""
Sir Jim Ratcliffe has publicly signalled patience for long-term progress, comparing the project to Mikel Arteta’s multi-year turnaround. Ruben Amorim acknowledges the owner’s backing but rejects any notion of a guaranteed timeframe, insisting that immediate performance and the next game are paramount. He stresses that owner support cannot control day-to-day results and that implying extended time risks complacency inside the club. Amorim places intense pressure on himself and the squad to prove their worth each weekend at a big club, despite the reassurance such backing gives supporters about leadership awareness.
