Ruben Amorim says he is confident going into the new season.
The head coach was speaking in the embargoed section of the pre-match presser ahead of United’s opening match of the 2025/26 season against Arsenal at Old Trafford tomorrow afternoon.
“[I’m] confident,” he said. “I know in some moments we will struggle because it is a game against Arsenal.
“We are more prepared. I think, I feel we have more players who can help us to change the momentum of the game. That can give you confidence.
“We have more options. If things are not working well, we can change things. That gives me more confidence in every game.”
Amorim was asked if Andre Onana will start against Arsenal tomorrow, having missed the whole of pre-season with injury.
“It’s like the other players. Everyone has to win the place,” he replied. “So I’m not going to say if one player is number one. He’s ready to go to the game. Let’s wait. You will know Sunday.”
