Will MU have a new Sir Alex?
Before the Champions League clash with Man City, coach Amorim joked that if he defeated "The Citizens", MU fans would compare him to Sir Alex Ferguson. Indeed, "Red Devils" fans have waited too long for someone talented enough to fill the void left by the legendary Scottish coach. And it was hard for Manucians to resist dreaming of a bright future when they witnessed Sporting Lisbon hand Man City their third consecutive defeat in all competitions, despite coach Amorim's modesty, claiming he was lucky.
Coach Amorim is receiving a lot of expectations.
According to Sky Sports , Sporting Liston, in the match against Man City alone, had similarities with MU under coach Erik ten Hag, which was conceding an early goal in the first half. In the 2024-2025 season alone, the Old Trafford team conceded 4 goals in the first 5 minutes. But unlike Ten Hag, Amorim knows how to lift the spirits of his students. The Portuguese strategist not only helped Sporting Lisbon players regain control of the game and play more alertly, but also inspired his students. In the second half, it was clear that the representative of the Iberian peninsula completely confused Man City with sharp defensive counter-attacking play, thereby completing an impressive comeback.
After a long period of decline, MU needs a leader to revive the team. And the appearance of a coach who can inspire and give confidence to the players is a positive sign. This is as important as the technical factors.
Coach Amorim has carefully studied MU
Coach Amorim affirmed: "When I came to the Premier League, it was a different world , a different pressure. This victory has no specific meaning for my upcoming move to MU. Don't take anything from this victory to compare. We cannot transfer one entity to another. MU cannot play with Sporting Liston's style and I will have to adapt."
This statement shows that the new MU coach must clearly understand one of the mistakes of his predecessor Ten Hag, which is not adapting to the harshness of the Premier League. Coach Ten Hag was successful at Ajax and trusted many players he worked with in the Netherlands such as Antony, Matthijs de Ligt, Andre Onana, Lisandro Martinez, Noussair Mazraoui, Joshua Zirkzee and Tyrell Malacia. Most of this group of players have been disappointing, even considered a disaster.
Is coach Amorim capable of becoming the new Sir Alex at Old Trafford?
According to many sources from Spain, Coach Amorim will not recruit any more players from the Netherlands because their ability to adapt to the English football environment is not good. In addition, he has not considered sending students from Sporting Lisbon to MU.
Amorim also affirmed: "I have other opportunities, the president of Sporting can confirm this. This is not the first or second time another club wants to recruit me. I do not want to lead any other team. After Sporting Lisbon, I only want to lead one team: MU".
With Amorim fully committed to Old Trafford, MU fans can also fully trust the new captain. Remember that Amorim is the coach with the highest winning rate in the top 10 European leagues. Since March 2020, when he took the hot seat at Sporting Lisbon, he has a winning rate of up to 77%.
