"Being a coach for MU is the most difficult job. I am 40 years old, but I also feel like I am 50 years old. For me, right now, only the feeling of winning and getting 3 points is really important," Coach Amorim expressed after MU won 1-0 against Fulham on January 27, which was also his 40th birthday.
Coach Amorim can now smile after many hardships with MU recently.
The win over Fulham was also MU's second consecutive win after the shocking 1-3 home loss to Brighton on January 19. This helped MU improve its position on the Premier League table, up to 12th place with 29 points after 23 matches.
In the Europa League, MU beat Rangers 2-1, before beating Romanian club FCSB 2-0 on January 31, to have an unbeaten record after 8 matches (5 wins, 3 draws) and earn a direct place in the round of 16 in the group of 8 leading teams.
In the same situation as MU (both outside the top 10 of the Premier League), Tottenham FC beat Elfsborg (Sweden) 3-0 on January 31, to ensure a place in the top 8 to enter the Europa League round of 16. Meanwhile, coach Jose Mourinho's Fenerbahce FC ranked 24th and had to play the play-off round.
Advancement to the Europa League early will help MU and Tottenham focus all their efforts on improving their positions and domestic goals. In particular, the Premier League is extremely important.
MU is preparing to meet Crystal Palace at home this weekend in round 24. If they continue to maintain their winning streak, the "Red Devils" will get closer to the opportunity to return to the top 10. Meanwhile, Tottenham also need to win again when meeting Brentford away to leave the bottom group.
MU still compete in the FA Cup when reaching the 4th round (against Leicester City), while Tottenham still hope to get a place in the League Cup final with the second leg of the semi-final against Liverpool (won 1-0 in the first leg).
Coach Amorim puts his faith in enthusiastic young players to help MU overcome the crisis.
According to Mail Sport : "Coach Amorim's belief is helping MU gradually overcome the crisis. This coach is turning young players like Garnacho or Kobbie Mainoo into new cores of the team, by instilling determination and dedication in them. This is also a lesson for star Rashford to see that he needs to try and prove his efforts to have a place to play."
MU is about to recruit player Patrick Dorgu from Lecce Club, which will be the first contract under coach Amorim. But the deal has been delayed because some paperwork has not been completed.
With the winter transfer window closing on February 3, MU need to complete the deal soon to get their first player. In addition, they also need to confirm whether striker Rashford will leave or not, while coach Amorim confirmed that he wants to keep young player Garnacho despite a transfer offer from Chelsea.
