Did anyone actually hear enough of it to have any sense of what he was trying to say? Pretty damned odd thing to say after a 1-0 loss at home where the opponent was mostly playing to keep their lead.
I think its just one of those things where managers all think they have to be philosophers now. No one would have taken issue had he said he was disappointed with the result but he saw enough to be confident that they are going to be much improved and competitive this year. That’s way too milquetoast for these modern guys though so he just over egged it.
He should probably be focused on proving he can get his side to actually beat Fulham. One more ‘moral victory’ like losing to Arsenal at home, and he goes into the home match versus Burnley facing a must-win. Scott Parker channels circa 2017 Dyche for a dreadful draw, and Amorim will have the noose around his throat to enter September, probably with the dreaded ‘vote of confidence from the Board’
No one would really have expected a win over Arsenal, but their August is comparatively soft. September is a much stiffer proposition with @City, Chelsea, and @Brentford. The pressure could build incredibly quickly.
Yeah he’s going have to find an option to maybe go down to unbeaten at some point as I can’t see this Man Utd becoming a winning machine any time soon.
It’s 2035, Manchester United are on their 20th Manager since the end of Fergie time and are still waiting for workmen to break ground on the proposed circus tent inspired stadium to replace the delapadated Old Trafford mausoleum of long forgotten successes. Marcus Rashford (still on the books at £300k a week) is serving the journalists their pre-match meal so it’s time for our annual check in with the fan who back in 2024 refused to cut his hair until Man U won 5 games in a row.
Amorim: “Today we proved that we can beat EVERY team in the Premier League!” 
Top fan
They proved a point that someone can end the season and start the season in the same position
