'Half of the stadium doesn't know me!' - Emotional Ruben Amorim thanks Man Utd fans for unconditional support during first home game as new head coach

Premier League

Wolverhampton

Manchester United

<p>Amorim did not have the start that he hoped for at Manchester United as a trip to Portman Road ended in a 1-1 draw with Ipswich Town. However, the Portuguese coach managed to get his first win as Red Devils boss when they hosted Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt at Old Trafford in a Europa League clash on Thursday. Thanks to a brace from Rasmus Hojlund and an early strike from Alejandro Garnacho, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/man-utd-player-ratings-vs-bodo-glimt-rasmus-hojlund-alejandro-garnacho/blt2eb3e9642305a061" target="_blank">the hosts won 3-2</a>, while Amorim was warmly welcomed by United fans.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Amorim joined United earlier this month after leaving Sporting CP a third of the way through the season. While the Portuguese coach has not had a lot of time to work with the Red Devils' squad, he has quickly started influencing the team's shape and tactics. This was appreciated by supporters, who already have a personalised song for Amorim.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Speaking in a press conference, Amorim said: "It was special because half of the stadium doesn't know me. You can say I came from Portugal, and half of the stadium doesn't know me.</p><p>"I have done nothing for this club yet, but the way they support me in the beginning, I felt that I'm not alone. I'm like one of them now, and it was really special. I hope not to disappoint my supporters."</p><p>While United's shape and tactics are starting to take shape, Amorim agreed that there is still a lot of work to be done. He added: "I think we improve different things since the last game. I know it's a different competition, a different team, but we improve with the ball. We control the tempo more with the ball, we push the team a little bit more higher, we create more chances.</p><p>"We should kill the game before the end. You suffer two transitions. I think we need to improve on that because it was like runs, it was like a physical thing, one against one. You have to improve on that, but I like some things that the team did today."</p>

WHAT AMORIM SAID

<p>The Red Devils will be in action next when they take on Everton on Sunday, December 1 at Old Trafford.</p>
