Ruben Amorim’s debut at Manchester United is avidly anticipated by fans, but there are still two more games to watch before the new man begins a new era at Old Trafford.
Predicted lineups for the match between Manchester United and PAOK
Man United (4-2-3-1): Onana; Mazraoui, Martinez, De Ligt, Dalot; Ugarte, Casemiro; Rashford, Fernandes, Garnacho; Zirkzee
PAOK (4-2-3-1): Kotarski; Jonny, Kedziora, Colley, Baba; Camara, Schwab; Despodov, Zivkovic, Taison; Thomas
Red Devils legend Ruud van Nistelrooy will once again serve as interim manager of the club when they face PAOK of Greece in the Europa League on Thursday evening (8 p.m. kick-off, live on TNT Sports 2).
In the European campaign of this season, neither team has yet to secure a victory. We believe that a positive outcome in Manchester could serve as a catalyst for their pursuit of qualification.
The players have a substantial amount of evidence to present to Amorim.
The expectation that Amorim can reverse Man United’s fortunes will have been heightened by Sporting CP’s 4-1 victory over Manchester City in Tuesday’s Champions League match.
The Red Devils have not won the Premier League title in 11 years, and many believe that a significant overhaul is necessary to reestablish themselves as European powers.
In the interim, the current group of players may be competing for their futures at Old Trafford, while the newcomer observes from afar.
Amorim is anticipated to provide all players with a fresh start; however, he will closely observe the performance of the Man United squad prior to commencing his training sessions.
The return to goalscoring form of Bruno Fernandes, his fellow countryman, is a positive for the incoming head coach.
