Amorim: The good days are coming

Ruben Amorim delivered a warning that a storm was coming, early into his Manchester United tenure.

After a season he admits has been “disastrous”, the last-day win over Aston Villa brought some smiles back to faces at Old Trafford, on the back of the painful Europa League final defeat to Tottenham Hotspur.

And, during his on-pitch address to the crowd after the final whistle, he made a promise this time around, in terms of his next prediction.

He said the good times are coming but everyone faces a choice – whether to fight each other or stick together.

The fans’ response to that was to suggest it will be a case of the latter, in 2025/26.

🗣 AMORIM’S SPEECH | The boss delivered a rousing message to the Old Trafford crowd following our win against Villa…

“First of all, I want to apologise for this season,” he said. “I know you are really disappointed with me and with the team

“I want to secondly say thank you. We are very grateful for your support during the season and I know that it’s been really hard. I know it was really hard to support us in many games but now we have to make a choice or we stay stuck in the past because this season is in the past, it’s over.

“We fight each other or we stick together and move forward. Six months ago, in my first three games in charge, with two victories and one draw, I said to you the storm is coming.

“Today, after this disastrous season, I want to tell you the good days are coming. If there is one club in the world that proves in the past that it can overcome any situation, any disaster, it’s our club, it’s Manchester United Football Club.

“Now I want to say sorry also to my players, sometimes I was not fair, but I always try to be honest with you. Thanks very much, see you next season.”
