There has been a obvious improvement in Manchester United’s play under interim coach Ruud van Nistelrooy compared to Erik Ten Hag’s tenure, I still think the match would likely have ended in a draw, especially given that encounters between these two clubs have historically produced the most draws in the Premier League. Even though United have shown better form under Ruud van Nistelrooy, they shouldn’t let it go to their heads instead, they should focus on securing Champions League qualification for next season and possibly winning the Europa League this year.
It is very clear that under the interim coach, Man United looks better in terms of play and in yesterday's match against Chelsea, I saw Man United players look calmer, they just need to improve their attack line a little. I think Van Nistelrooy would be suitable to accompany Amorim as an assistant coach, although I read in the newspaper that Amorim will bring two of his assistants who worked with him at Sporting CP, but Van Nistelrooy cannot be ruled out, he will be needed to at least speed up Amorim's adaptation when coaching Man United later. And indeed the realistic target for Man United this season is to get a ticket to the UCL at the end of the season besides that in the European league which is currently being played with the arrival of a new coach, it is hoped that it will improve its position in the standings table.
For Amorim to succeed at a club like Manchester United, he would need to prove that he can handle the intense pressure, motivate a team with diverse talents, and establish a consistent, winning strategy. His victory over City is impressive, but only time and experience will show if he’s truly ready to lead a team of United’s caliber back to the top. It would certainly be interesting to see how he fares, but for now, he remains a promising coach who is not yet in the same league as the likes of Guardiola.
