Ruben Amorim Prepares for First Manchester Derby

Ruben Amorim, the newly appointed Manchester United head coach, is set to face Manchester City in his first derby match amid speculation about his future with City. Amorim has categorically denied any discussions regarding replacing Pep Guardiola at City, emphasizing that his focus is solely on improving Manchester United, which currently struggles with the lowest points tally at this stage since 1986. United recently secured a 2-1 Europa League win but has suffered significant defeats in the Premier League, while City is enduring a tough phase with only one win in their last ten matches. Amorim expressed confidence in his team's potential while acknowledging the challenges they face against a historically strong opponent. He remains concentrated on addressing United's issues rather than the current difficulties of City, asserting that great teams can bounce back at any time. As he prepares for the derby, Amorim's main goal is to foster improvement within his squad.
