Three games in charge of Manchester United and already a chant in his honor. Reuben Amorim It took him very little to be “adopted” by the fans Red Devils: arriving just three weeks ago to replace Erik ten Hag – after Ruud van Nistelrooy’s interregnum – the Portuguese has been given a great welcome and from the stands the supporters are singing his name to the tune of the hit “Give it Up” by the group KC and the Sunshine Band.
A chant repeated several times on Sunday during the victory against Everton (4-0) and which embarrasses the former Sporting manager a bit: “I feel a bit embarrassed, I’m the manager and they have to sing for the players and for the club. It’s not a good thing for me. I understand and really appreciate the connection with the fans, but I want them to support the team and the players, because they are on the pitch and I obviously manage from outside honored, I already feel a connection with i fans, but we know that we need results to move forward.”
With Sunday’s success, Manchester United are 9th in the Premier League, three points away from the European zone. Rashford and co will take on second-placed Arsenal tomorrow. In the next few weeks the calendar will be tight: Nottingham Forest will arrive at Old Trafford (6th), before the derby against Manchester City and the League Cup quarter-final against Tottenham.
