Shocked Amorim Kicks Off His Journey with Manchester United

Manchester United begins a new era under Portuguese coach Rúben Amorim, who makes his managerial debut for the club against Ipswich Town at Portman Road in the 12th round of the English Premier League.

At 39 years and 302 days old (on match day), Amorim becomes the youngest manager to lead the “Red Devils” since Wilf McGuinness in August 1969, who was just 31 years and 288 days old at the time.

All eyes are on Amorim as he embarks on what is expected to be a transformative project for the glorious English club. According to The Sun, Amorim was reportedly “shocked” during his first training sessions, noticing that the squad lacked both speed and seriousness in practice.

The report suggests that Amorim sees the team as overpriced and bloated with surplus players. He identified several players who do not fit into his preferred 3-4-3 tactical system.

And it seemed that Amorim was obliged to continually urge the players to raise their intensity throughout an entire week of training sessions, all focused on preparing for the Sunday clash against Ipswich.

Amorim becomes the sixth permanent manager of Manchester United in the 11 years since the retirement of legendary Sir Alex Ferguson in 2013. It seems he is eyeing the transfer market, having set his sights on England international Angel Gomes, who is shining with Lille in France.

Gomes, who was a United player before leaving four years ago, could start negotiations with clubs in January as his contract with Lille expires next summer. He is unlikely to miss the chance to return to the club where he made his Premier League debut at the age of 16 years and 263 days in 2017.

Given that United spent heavily in the last summer transfer window, the club is expected to look for free transfer deals under Amorim’s vision. One of his main targets is Canadian left-back Alphonso Davies of Bayern Munich, whose contract also ends next summer.

United is reportedly preparing a financial offer higher than that of Spanish giants Real Madrid, including a lucrative salary package, to secure Davies’ move to the “Theatre of Dreams” if he does not renew his deal with Bayern.

Here are some key statistics to help you predict the right result and win with betway:

Ipswich has lost four times and drawn once in their last five Premier League matches against Manchester United, failing to score in any of those defeats. This will be their first match since United’s 1-0 away win in April 2002.
Following their first league win of the season against Tottenham, Ipswich is aiming to secure back-to-back Premier League victories for the first time since February 2002.
Manchester United has won 17 of their last 19 Premier League matches against newly promoted sides (D2) since their 4-1 loss to Watford in November 2021. Away from home, they’ve won their last nine such matches.
Ipswich is the only team yet to win at home in the Premier League this season (P5, D3, L2).
Ipswich’s Liam Delap has scored six of the team’s 12 Premier League goals this season, joining the likes of Erling Haaland (12/22) for Manchester City and Chris Wood (8/15) for Nottingham Forest in scoring at least 50% of their team’s goals.

Rúben Amorim’s arrival at Manchester United has sparked excitement among fans and bettors alike, with plenty of speculation surrounding his tactical plans and transfer targets.
