"To lose so many games, that was so hard for me, he said, because this is Manchester United. Putting all the attention on the Europa League and not winning, that was massive. So I had some moments where I struggled a lot, and I was thinking: Maybe it's not meant to be.' Today is the opposite Today I feel that it was the best decision in my life [to join], and I want to be here."
"When I started thinking about the system, nobody was playing 3-4-3, so I can understand how to rotate players, he said. Even in the way we buy players, if you have a clear idea how to play, it's easy for you to [say]: This is the guy that I want.' And that can help you. When [today] is 4-3-3 and tomorrow is a 4-4-2, it's harder to make the characteristics right for the players, so I try to use all this knowledge to search for the right players."
"A lot of things can happen. We have the World Cup, some players who are not playing, they will ask to leave, so I have to manage everything, he said. And then we want to bring players that we can see have a big future in Manchester United."
Ruben Amorim experienced moments of doubt after the Europa League final defeat by Tottenham and a run of 19 losses in 52 games. He oversaw Manchester United's lowest Premier League finish, 15th, last season and admitted struggling with the pressure. Amorim now feels joining Manchester United was the best decision and wants to remain in charge. He defends his commitment to a 3-4-3 system, arguing that a consistent approach aids player recruitment and role clarity. He acknowledged January transfer uncertainty due to the World Cup and potential departures and said the club seeks players with long-term futures at Manchester United.
