<p>The <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/red-devils-fans-go-wild-luke-littler-historic-pdc-world-championship-win-michael-van-gerwen/bltceaa33ba581bbd96#cs392ee27bd8a8836b" target="_blank">youngster's triumph at the World Championship</a> has created quite a stir across the UK and has also reportedly inspired Red Devils boss Amorim. Per <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/32612922/amorim-luke-littler-man-utd/" target="_blank"><em>The Sun</em></a>, the Portuguese has used Littler's grit and self-belief as an example to motivate his players ahead of Sunday's trip to Premier League leaders Liverpool.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>A source told <em>The Sun</em>, "Ruben is well aware of the Herculean task in front of him and his players - not just today [Sunday]. He wants the team to start channelling the same self-belief Luke showed in Friday’s world final.

They’re all pretty close to Luke and know victory against Liverpool would cap the most memorable weekend for their most famous fan."</p>
