Amorim Calls for United Improvement After Leeds Draw

Manchester United's manager, Ruben Amorim, acknowledged the need for significant improvement following the team's goalless draw against Leeds United in their pre-season opener. He highlighted areas where the team must focus, particularly in the midfield.

The previous season proved to be a challenging one for Manchester United. They endured their worst Premier League performance, finishing in 15th place. Their struggles extended to European competition, as they lost the Europa League final to Tottenham Hotspur, thus missing out on Champions League qualification.

The match against Leeds, held in Stockholm, failed to showcase a dominant performance from United, despite the inclusion of new signing Matheus Cunha in the starting eleven. Amorim observed specific weaknesses during the game.

Amorim pointed out that the team struggled when attempting to press high, often conceding possession and facing counter-attacks. He specifically noted a lack of pace within the midfield, which hindered their ability to advance the ball effectively. However, he also acknowledged the chances created by the team.

The manager emphasized the need for overall improvement, focusing on the speed of the game and other crucial details. He viewed the match as a valuable initial test against a Premier League opponent, allowing for assessment and future development.

Manchester United's next pre-season fixture is scheduled against West Ham United at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on July 26.

Another season, another struggle. When will this cycle of mediocrity end?

No pace in midfield? That’s a fundamental issue that needs to be addressed immediately!

A goalless draw against Leeds in a pre-season match? That's embarrassing!

High pressing is a tough tactic to master. It’s a process, and I trust Amorim.

Can’t wait for the next match! I’m optimistic we’ll see improvements.
