“Of course, it’s a difficult moment because we have lost too many games and we are going to face the best team of the season,” remarked the Portuguese coach during the press conference preceding the meeting with Liverpool, the leaders of the English Premier League.
Currently, United sit in 14th place in the table after 19 matches, having lost five of their last six league games. On Sunday they travel to Anfield, where they have not won a league match since January 2016.
Amorim added that “in football, anything can happen during a match. » “At the moment they are better than us, but we can win any match,” said the coach, who arrived at Old Trafford in November 2024.
Recent defeats against Liverpool, notably September’s 3-0 defeat in Manchester, do not intimidate the manager. “I focus on performance; I don’t think about defeat and what could happen. We prepared for this match in order to win, and we know what awaits us,” emphasized the former Sporting coach.
