Amorim Demands Improvement Against Spurs

The forty-year-old still believes the team should be more flexible, though. Amorim said club media, “We had some problems with players at the conclusion of the week. And that proved to be the toughest aspect of the week.

“It was a good week to advance on tactical as well as physical aspects.”

Following a good FA Cup performance with Leicester, Patrick Dorgu should be more current with his style of play, he said.

“We work with him and he is grasping our preferred playing style more clearly. He carries some habits from the last club [Lecce]. He had to adjust in the early minutes, but this has been a wonderful week.

Regarding Alejandro Garnacho, Amorim also remarked, “Yes, he is loving the way we play. He is good in the one-on- one sessions and confident. In a player like him, these kind of nuances are crucial. The Under-18s 5-1 victory over Chelsea earlier this week was mentioned by the United manager.

“Of course, they have [done well] and I am rather glad for them as we will need them greatly for the future of this club. Still, they have to keep training as the Premier League is a different planet and daily improvement is essential. I am thus rather pleased and they must keep on.

Following a week free of games, Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has said he expects his players to perform more better during Sunday’s encounter with Tottenham Hotspur. Coming from behind to defeat Leicester City 2-1 in the fourth round of the FA Cup, United last took action on February 7.

Amorim has regularly expressed his annoyance over restricted training time with his players since replacing Erik ten Hag in November 2024, but he at last got the chance he was looking for.

Amorim mentioned a few fitness concerns at his presser ahead of the Spurs meeting. The Portuguese coach observed that some players are still recovering while one is doubtful this weekend owing to illness.
