Manchester United achieve back-to-back Premier League wins amid Arne Slot tactical criticism

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim dismissed Liverpool boss Arne Slot's criticism of his team's tactics following their 2-1 victory at Anfield, emphasizing that he is more focused on improving his team's play and upcoming matches rather than responding to external opinions. Amorim acknowledged the importance of adapting to different games and praised his team's ability to secure back-to-back Premier League wins for the first time since his arrival, while cautioning against overemphasizing the notion of a turning point in his tenure. Slot had described United's approach as playing a low block and using long balls, which he found difficult to play against, but later clarified that his comments were intended as a compliment on United's effective game plan. Despite Liverpool's struggles, including four consecutive losses before a Champions League win, Slot defended his remarks as an explanation of the challenges his team faced rather than outright criticism. Amorim remained focused on his team's development and future performances, particularly the upcoming match against Brighton, underscoring his commitment to playing better with the ball and adapting tactics as needed.
