Manchester, England – E be like say Ruben Amorim don finally find the magic wey go carry Manchester United waka far this season. As he take charge for Old Trafford for the past nine months, him don dey preach hard work and dedication to hin players. Na so wey dey inspire dem, no be small.
Last week, even as dem lose match 0-1, the vibes for the team don change. Amorim no carry matter for head, e still dey joke say Brazilian superstar Casemiro dey play with style wey dey slow, but him contribution na serious business. Flexing like say he dey on holiday while the others dey press like mad.
“I dey see good for team,” Amorim talk after the match. “Our physical prowess don improve, and we dey recover faster. Casemiro dey sprint like say him don dey play Olympics, and we no fit control results, but we fit control our performances.” (No be small matter, dem don upgrade from Sunday league level to Premier League standard.)
As dem prepare for Fulham next week, Amorim hastily talk say, “We need to start scoring goals! That na the main thing wey we dey lack. This team don dey pick sense and dey gel together like butter and bread.” (We dey hope say goals go follow after dem training like rain for wet season.)
Man United don spending more than £200 million dis summer, so expectations high like skyscrapers. Dem buy new attackers like Benjamin Sesko, Matheus Cunha, and Bryan Mbeumo. But dem still dey face challenges on the pitch to make am work. With no European games to distract dem, Amorim get all the time to work on strategy.
Meanwhile, man wey dey take position for goal, Senne Lammens, don almost join the team as dem dey close in on £17 million deal from Royal Antwerp. E go compete with Onana and no be small pressure dey to prove say dem fit perform better.
“We no just need to train; we need to score,” Amorim talk as he dey motivate hin boys. “Wetin we dey do na to make dem play freely without think too much. Na only den dem fit shine.” (E go good make dem forget about previous losses and focus on future.)
