Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has openly admitted his bewilderment regarding his team’s inability to secure back-to-back Premier League victories, a glaring flaw that has persisted throughout his ten-month tenure at Old Trafford. The Red Devils’ recent 2-1 triumph over Chelsea marked a significant milestone—their first consecutive home wins in the league under Amorim—yet the elusive consecutive league victories remain just out of reach, following a disheartening derby defeat to Manchester City.
The Quest for Consistency
Amorim, who took the reins in November 2024, understands the growing skepticism from the fanbase. He candidly confessed, “It’s normal for the fans, they don’t know what is going to happen in the next game. To be completely honest, I have an idea, but I don’t know how it’s going to be and I’m the manager of the team.” This admission highlights the unpredictable nature of United’s performances, a stark contrast to the consistent dominance expected from a club of their stature.
The upcoming clash against 17th-placed Brentford presents an opportunity for United to finally break this frustrating cycle. Despite being clear favorites, the manager acknowledges the lack of shared confidence among supporters, a sentiment he fully comprehends given the team’s erratic form.
Amorim’s Urgent Call for Back-to-Back Wins
For Amorim, every game is now a final. “The best way of dealing with that is that every game is the last one. It’s just not thinking about two games,” he emphasized. He recognizes the monumental importance of securing consecutive wins for Manchester United, a club yearning for stability and a clear direction.
“Yes, it’s a big deal for Manchester United. The next game is going to be the most important game for a long time for Manchester United. I understand the feeling of the fans. Let’s start changing that feeling and present ourselves with that urgency that we need to do on the pitch,” Amorim declared, signaling a renewed focus and determination.
Beyond the Results: A Push for Performance
Despite a modest return of two wins from their opening five games, Amorim maintains that United’s performances have often been better than the results suggest. He is urging his players to channel this underlying quality into tangible victories.
“I don’t say ‘playing well’ because I think we did that this year,” the boss explained. “It’s really important [that United win two straight games], I think that and we spoke about that in the end of the game. It’s really important for us to have that sense of urgency that we need to win no matter what, and it’s going to be really difficult.”
Amorim’s message is clear: the team must approach every match with the same intensity and determination shown in strong starts against Chelsea, Burnley, and Arsenal. The focus is not just on the outcome but on the unwavering commitment to win from the first whistle.
This period is crucial for Manchester United’s season and for Amorim’s long-term vision. Overcoming this inconsistency will be a significant step towards restoring the club’s formidable reputation and building a foundation for future success.
