Manchester United have won three consecutive Premier League games. |
After long years of struggling between hope and disappointment, the "Red Devils" finally found their way under the hands of Ruben Amorim - a young, daring coach who knows how to combine tactical reasoning with football emotions.
Amorim and the Art of Regenerating Faith
Against Brighton, Manchester United played a style of football they have rarely shown in the post-Sir Alex Ferguson era: proactive, ambitious and structured. The three central defenders were allowed to press high, the forwards moved coherently, and the players understood their roles within the system.
Amorim not only brings victory, he brings a sense of "control" - something that previous coaches like Ten Hag, Solskjaer or Mourinho have failed to do.
“The players are more confident,” Amorim said after the 4-2 win over Brighton. “When you have a different mentality, sometimes you get a little bit lucky in important moments. I feel that now – that we are playing with more freedom.”
The real luck came when Casemiro’s long-range shot deflected off Ayari’s back and into the net. But luck favours teams that are hardworking and organised. Amorim has created a club like that – controlling, waiting, and punishing when the opportunity arises.
Manchester United’s success has not only come from Amorim’s philosophy, but also from the signings he has chosen to build on. Mason Mount’s injury seemed like a blow, but it has allowed Benjamin Sesko to return to the centre-forward position and re-establish an attacking trio with Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha.
They are three players with different qualities, but together they create a dynamic and creative combination. Mbeumo is lithe, technical and intelligent, helping United maintain their attacking rhythm. Sesko is the modern centre-forward - strong, fast and able to create space. Cunha is the link-up man, moves intelligently and always fights like a warrior.
It was Cunha’s two-touch finish that opened the scoring, and Mbeumo’s cool shot in injury time that sealed a 4-2 win. Between those two goals was a confident club, not panicking even as Brighton reduced the score. A mature team that knows how to “wobble without falling”.

Amorim is not only good at inspiring, he is also sharp in adjusting tactics. United now do not attack in a rush, but attack with purpose. When they do not have the ball, they switch to a 5-4-1 formation, with the two "10s" Cunha and Mbeumo dropping deep to support Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes, blocking the central space - a weakness that caused the team to decline under Ten Hag.
This allowed Manchester United to press high when needed, or retreat low when the opposition applied pressure. It was a flexibility that former United defender Gary Neville called “Amorim’s best week at Old Trafford”.
The Portuguese coach himself admitted that this was the team's "most comprehensive performance" since the beginning of the season: "We did everything - controlling the ball, creating chances, pressing and defending solidly."
Strength comes from faith and desire
Manchester United today is different in spirit. The players are no longer struggling with doubts but have started to believe in the system, in each other and in the leader.
From the goal with young goalkeeper Senne Lammens - who brings calm instead of chaos - to the fiery attack of Mbeumo, Cunha, Sesko, everyone finds their place in the "music" Amorim is writing. They are no longer a fragmented collective that relies on individual moments. This is a structured team, where every individual contributes to the system. And it is that - more than any star - that is the key to the club's revival.
Three consecutive victories do not give Amorim any illusions, but are confirmation that Manchester United have come through a period of turmoil. There are still challenging away trips to Nottingham Forest and Tottenham, but now the “Red Devils” know how to stand firm, even when pushed to the limit.
Amorim doesn't promise miracles, he builds with discipline and faith. |
Amorim doesn't promise miracles, he builds with discipline and belief. Manchester United no longer have to rely on the past to find pride, they are writing a new chapter - where young players, new recruits and former doubters are lighting up Old Trafford together.
Before asking the question “How strong is Manchester United?”, perhaps fans should pause to enjoy this moment - when the “Red Devils” look better, play better and most importantly, make the football world talk about them with respect.
