Ruben Amorim may never be in a stronger position as Manchester United’s head coach as he is at this very moment.
At the time of writing, he has yet to manage a single game for the Reds so his reputation is yet to be tarnished by any poor performances – should any of those even come. He has just been appointed as Ineos’ first boss at Old Trafford which means he has the 100 per cent backing of Sir Jim Ratcliffe, Dan Ashworth, Omar Berrada and the rest of the boardroom.
As such, he holds plenty of power over the squad too. They are the ones who have underperformed so far and, as such, are not in a position to question the authority of the new head coach.

But it is not just the squad who have to fall in line at present – Ineos are not immune from criticism either, as was proven this week in Amorim’s criticism of Marcus Rashford and Casemiro being allowed to fly to America during the international break. The 39-year-old insisted the whole club needed to set the standards to rebuild the Reds into a force again.
“I think the main question here is that us, as a club, have to set the standards and have to manage that,” Amorim responded. “It is my decision if they can have five days [off], three days or three days to rest, you cannot fly.
“This is something that us, as a club, have to decide.” When asked by Neville if he would have banned Rashford and Casemiro from going to America, Amorim added: “For me? Yes for sure.
“We cannot put this on the players. They [United] told them they can have five days off so they can fly anywhere because nobody at the club says you cannot fly.”
While another firm hand disciplinarian will be welcomed by supporters, Amorim must realise that he needs to find the right balance. Part of Erik ten Hag’s downfall stemmed from him trying to set high standards.
As mentioned, that in itself is not a bad thing but Ten Hag’s way of doing things turned the club into a soap opera. Whether it be Cristiano Ronaldo, Jadon Sancho or Rashford, it felt like the Dutchman’s era was dotted with huge sagas – the sort of which don’t seem to happen at other top clubs.
Looking back, did it feel like there was a close knit relationship between Ten Hag and his players? Maybe at one point with the fans but very rarely, if ever, with the squad.
So for Amorim his task is relatively simple on paper. He needs to create a bond that Ten Hag never established at Old Trafford with his team while also having that disciplinarian streak in him.
Some of United’s squad may not be thankful for having their international break trips across the Atlantic stopped but they will learn to respect it if they gain a good relationship with Amorim. That should hopefully come in the coming weeks and months but it is not a given nor easy – that is why the Portuguese is being paid the big bucks.
