Our Focus

Manchester United have a tough game today against Brighton. Granted, we’re at home. However, I do not think that counts for anything these days going on past inconsistences. However, when you have an absolute gem in Amad. Let’s be honest with ourselves. He’s everything that a Manchester United player should work to be. He’s worked hard; he shows that on the pitch, and he’s even proved a few doubters wrong as well.

We’re in a tough league, so a victory is not guaranteed today. We have to respect the opposition but build on the confidence of previous results. I think the fans will get behind all the effort that is being shown. Does this team need to do more collectively? Absolutely. However, I think an unsung hero has been Harry Maguire in that back three in defence.

With all the talk about some of our youngest talents going, I think the club would do an injustice to itself if it didn’t continue it’s roots of improving them. If anything, it just shows that we need better, more experienced people around them. If we can get to the summer, it’s going to be crucial because the outgoings could be significant, especially as Amorim has tried and tested different combinations this season.

I also think that the youth coming through the academy is going to be significant as well. There is going to be more pain this season, but hopefully that’s a precursor to next season being a time where we can build the team Amorim obviously needs.

At the moment, we’re just getting through and going through the motions. Amorim has not only spoken well, but he’s already discovering the problems that he needs to fix going forward. That includes getting players who can play his system in an effective way.

I would take a run in the Europa League over the FA Cup. I think the latter is actually more important to us and significant for our plans next summer and for the overall health of the club. However, if we can march on and get the results needed to finish this season, respectively, in the Premier League. I think that could really shape where we go next, absolutely.
