Ruben Amorim, head coach of Manchester United, highlighted the need to focus on young talent following the record-breaking start against Brentford, including 17-year-old Chido Obi. Obi became the youngest player to start a Premier League match for United, contributing to a historically young starting XI. Despite the excitement around these milestones, Amorim aimed to reduce pressure on the young striker. His approach includes prioritizing the Europa League over domestic matches, as he has deliberately rotated the squad to avoid injuries to key players ahead of a crucial semi-final.
"For me, it is not a massive game for Chido, I know it's important for Chido, but I don't want a lot of pressure on Chido."
"We have always a responsibility to perform, but in this moment we have to be clear: our focus is more on saving players."
