Ruben Amorim Optimistic Yet Cautious Ahead of New Man Utd Season
So, here’s what’s going on at Manchester United right now — and it’s a mix of excitement and realism. The new head coach, Ruben Amorim, has officially expressed that he’s happy with the squad he has heading into the new season. But, in true football fashion, it’s not all sunshine and trophies. He’s also warned that the Red Devils will have to "suffer" through some tough moments, despite a few impressive new signings.
Now, the club’s made some interesting moves. Two solid Premier League forwards — Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford and Matheus Cunha from Wolves — have been brought in. These aren’t just random additions; they’ve both proven they can compete at this level. And that’s a big deal for a team that’s been trying to rebuild its attacking strength. Alongside them, a young fullback, Diego Leon, has also joined the ranks. But fans are still waiting to see if a high-profile striker will be added to the mix, especially since last season’s performances from Rasmus Højlund and Joshua Zirkzee left much to be desired.

Amorim addressed that exact issue. When asked about bringing in another striker, he gave a bit of a mixed message. He said Mbeumo and Cunha can play in that central role, but also stressed the importance of improving the chemistry among existing forwards. In his words, players like Zirkzee and Højlund will have to work hard to earn their spot, and nothing is guaranteed. He’s clearly not rushing to splash more cash unless it really makes sense.
What stood out the most, though, was his appreciation for the attitude of the new signings. He emphasized how important it is that players actually want to be at United. Mbeumo and Cunha reportedly had other offers — some from Champions League clubs — but chose Old Trafford instead. Amorim sees that as a crucial factor in rebuilding the team’s culture and spirit.
He also pointed out that United can’t afford to repeat past transfer mistakes. The club’s recent record in the market hasn’t exactly been flawless, and he wants to make sure every new addition genuinely fits the plan.
So, in short — Amorim’s pleased with the squad, but he's also realistic. He knows challenges lie ahead, even with the boost in talent. Whether or not a new striker arrives, it's clear that hard work and commitment will be non-negotiable at Old Trafford this season. Fans should expect some growing pains, but there’s definitely a sense of direction under Amorim’s leadership.
