Manchester United recently impressed with a 4-0 victory over Bournemouth at Soldier Field in Chicago during the Premier League Summer Series. Yet, it is the words of their manager, Ruben Amorim, that might generate even greater anticipation among supporters for the upcoming season.<\/p>\n
Amorim remarked, \u201cIt was just a preseason game but the feeling with the same players, even being a preseason game, if you look at the same players now playing, it looks like a different team and that is a good sign.\u201d This notion of transformation is particularly welcome given the club\u2019s challenging Premier League campaigns in recent years.<\/p>\n
The Portuguese coach took the opportunity to laud United\u2019s defensive work against Bournemouth\u2019s attackers Evanilson and Antoine Semenyo and singled out Luke Shaw and the team\u2019s unity for praise. With the full preseason at his disposal, Amorim can fine-tune his tactical approach and philosophy with the squad.<\/p>\n
Investment in the squad is clear, with summer signings including Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo\u2014the latter possibly debuting in their final Summer Series match against Everton. Amorim also commented on striker Rasmus H\u00f8jlund\u2019s contribution: \u201cI’m really happy with Rasmus. I don’t know what is going to happen until the end of the market. The important thing is that the strikers that are here are working really well, are improving, are helping the team and that is the most important thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
H\u00f8jlund\u2019s enthusiasm after scoring in preseason was noted by commentators Tim Howard and Peter Drury, indicating his drive. Meanwhile, Patrick Dorgu delivered his best performance for United since joining in January, a notable positive given the importance of wingbacks in Amorim\u2019s tactical setup.<\/p>\n
Manchester United will conclude their Summer Series campaign on Sunday at 5 p.m. ET in Atlanta against Everton. The early signs suggest a squad on the rise with a cohesive identity under Ruben Amorim\u2019s stewardship.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
