Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has candidly addressed the state of his team, describing the club as a “massive club” but acknowledging that it is not yet a “massive team.” His remarks followed United’s latest performance, where they struggled to match the pace of a resurgent Arsenal side.
Speaking to the press, Amorim said:
“We are a massive club but not a massive team, and we know it. I think that is clear.”
The Portuguese tactician admitted the disparity in quality compared to their rivals but emphasized the need for patience and a methodical approach to improvement.
“It’s not a problem to say it. We want to improve in a different moment from Arsenal, but you can see it during the game,” he added.
Since taking charge in November 2024, Amorim has faced the daunting task of rebuilding Manchester United to compete at the highest level. His comments underscore the gap between United’s historic stature and their current on-field performances, while highlighting his realistic approach to restoring the club’s former glory.
United fans will be eager to see how Amorim implements his vision in the coming months, with a heavy focus on recruitment, tactical evolution, and consistency.
