Premier League 2024-25: Amorim says Manchester United will ‘fight’ for victory vs Man City
The HinduRuben Amorim says Manchester United will “fight” for victory in Sunday’s clash against misfiring Manchester City as he bids to turn around its own shocking Premier League form. “I am always looking forward to coaching Manchester United, especially in the derby but we have so much to focus,” United manager Amorim told MUTV. “I think we did a good job in the first half against Arsenal, so we have that ability, we have players to do it, and we will try to do it again and try to win the game.” The former Sporting Lisbon boss said it was vital to create a winning culture after United’s Europa League victory in midweek, during which they recovered from a goal down, thanks to two strikes from Rasmus Hojlund. “I have a huge respect for Manchester City but I’m just focused on Manchester United,” said the Portuguese, who inflicted a 4-1 defeat on City last month in his penultimate match as Sporting boss.
