In a rallying cry to his team, Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim called on key figures in the group to step up and provide support to those currently struggling under the pressure of expectations. The Red Devils find themselves stuck in mid-table, sitting 14th in the Premier League after a difficult spell where they have lost five of their last six league outings.
As the team prepares for a daunting clash against league leaders Liverpool on Sunday at 6:30 p.m. (SA time), Amorim reflected on the challenges facing his players. “Sometimes players seem paralyzed on the pitch,” he told the media. “It’s crucial that our leaders rise to the occasion and help their teammates through this difficult time – and I accept my share of the responsibility to improve our performance.”
