Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has warned the club’s fans that a storm will come despite his positive start with the team. The Portuguese is unbeaten in three games in charge and registered a 4-0 win against Everton on Sunday.
The Red Devils will have their work cut out against Arsenal and the manager reckons the team can be found out against the Gunners.
“I would like to say different things, but I have to say it again: the storm will come,” Amorim said.
“I don’t know if you use that expression, but we are going to have difficult moments and we will be found out in some games. I know that because I know my players and I know football and I follow football. We are in the point in that we are putting simple things in the team, without training.
“So let’s focus on each game, on the performance, what we have to improve, trying to win games. And that is the focus. I know it’s really hard to be a Manchester United coach and say these things in press conferences.
“We want to win all the time, no matter what, we are going to try to win, but we know that we are in a different point, if you compare to Arsenal.”
Amorim has caught the limelight after taking over the coaching baton from former coach Erik Ten Hag. The Portuguese said all the attention has caught him by surprise.
“A little bit, because you don’t know how is life in this kind of club,” he said.
“So it’s always a surprise. I think I can manage that, but you have to do so much more than coach the team. You improve and other things in yourself as a coach, you have to manage the time in a different way.
“You have less time to prepare for the games, not just because you are playing after two days, but also because you have a lot to do. I can say I was a little bit surprised, but at the same time I was expecting something different.”
United will take on Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday.
