“He has already proved that he is a coach that has won a lot” : Casemiro believes new Manchester United coach Ruben Amorim can take them to the next level
After a relatively horror start to the season under head coach Erik ten Hag, Manchester United are finding their footing under interim coach Ruud Van Nistelrooy. Undefeated in four matches while scoring goals for fun, it seems like it is finally time for the Red Devils to properly take charge over their season.
Meanwhile, Ruben Amorim has already been appointed as the new head coach for United. The former Sporting manager has been highly victorious in Portugal and with the atmosphere finally getting a bit positive in Manchester, it seems like the perfect opportunity to revive the club back to its glory days. Amorim left Sporting CP with a perfect record of 11 wins out of 11 games this season, and will be looking forward to continue his success now in a much more competitive league.
On the player’s side, one of the more veteran players of the squad in Casemiro recently spoke about how the whole group is looking forward to learn and grow with the help from the Portuguese manager, in hopes to save the remainder of the season from total embarrassment.
“I think there is going to be a good template that everyone wants to grow, everyone wants to learn” : Casemiro
The Brazilian midfielder himself had one of the worst starts of the season in his career, to a point where fans and even football pundits wanted him to retire or play in the lower leagues. But the 32-year-old changed his fortunes under the interim manager as well, and believes Amorim is the right person to take the squad forward.
“He is very true, very loyal, we cannot ignore how he has changed Sporting (Lisbon). We know that Sporting won many titles, changed the club with titles, with trophies. He has already proved that he is a coach that has won a lot.” said the Brazilian.
“I want to continue growing, I want to continue helping my team-mates and the coach, helping Manchester United grow.” the five-time Champions League winner added.
For Ruben Amorim, the job will definitely not be an easy one as the Red Devils are currently sit 13th in the points table with just four wins out of 11 games. The Dutchman really left things in a mess and the 39-year-old would require all the help from Van Nistelrooy and co. to make amends going into the second half of the season, at least initially.
