In their Premier League matchday 9 game last night, Man Utd secured an impressive 4-2 victory against Brighton. This win propelled the Red Devils to fourth place in the table with 16 points, three points behind league leaders Arsenal but with a game in hand.

Notably, the victory against Brighton marked Manchester United's third consecutive win in the Premier League. This is the first time under manager Amorim that the Red Devils have achieved this. The situation at Man Utd has improved significantly compared to the end of September, when the club suffered a defeat against Brentford.
Therefore, the pressure on manager Amorim has been greatly reduced. After the match against Brighton, the Portuguese coach declared that he had never felt any pressure or doubt from Sir Jim Ratcliffe, even during the worst times.
Coach Amorim said: “I have never felt ashamed or confused about my work, even during defeats. Sir Jim Ratcliffe always believed in us and understood what we were doing. The biggest pressure comes from the fans because they find it hard to accept when the team doesn't win.”
But I sense the urgency at this stage because football can change in just a week. Enjoy the victory today, but tomorrow you have to focus on the next game.”

When asked whether the Manchester United players had truly embraced his philosophy, manager Amorim suggested that the club's progress stemmed not only from tactics, but also from the rising spirit and confidence in the dressing room.
The Portuguese coach added: “The most important thing today was how we played. The players understood when to press, when to maintain the tempo, and knew how to handle different stages of the game. We were under a bit of pressure at the end of the match, but sometimes that kind of drama is what makes Manchester United.”
When asked about the secret to the team's rapid transformation, the Portuguese manager revealed: "The players are much more confident. In my opinion, Man Utd's best game this season was against Arsenal, even though we didn't get the result we wanted then."
But now, with confidence back and a more positive mindset, you'll see that sometimes we have a little bit of luck. That's what helps the team win. I can clearly feel the players are playing more freely and fluidly. Last week, we won thanks to a bit of luck, but also because the whole team is in a completely different spirit.”
