Ruben Amorim is not getting carried away with win at Anfield

Ruben Amorim asserted the importance of building momentum with a victory against Brighton.

**Man United**won back to back Premier League games under **Ruben Amorim**the first time after a 2-0 triumph over **Sunderland**and a 2-1 victory at **Anfield**against the reigning champions Liverpool.

It is not enough to earn back the trust of all his critics, but the head coach continues to focus on what he can control, and with more positive results, the narrative may more closely reflect the reality.

“We know that was a good weekend for us, but our focus is on the next game. That is in the past. And we need to understand that football changed a lot, especially in this kind of club. So, we are not thinking in the last game, we are thinking on this game, it’s going to be really hard to win.

“We were really focused in the game. Then we play different games. So, we have one identity, one way of playing, but we adapt what kind of game we need to play in the moment. You can sense that the first half against Sunderland was not the same as the second half. We know how to manage that.

*“And then, against Liverpool, of course, we scored right away in the in the first place, and then we managed the game, playing in the different style, because [it] was needed in that moment. That is a good thing. And then the spirit, and sometimes when you have a good spirit, you have that bit of luck that we need to win games.”*

“We cannot change so much. I think they ask me about top four in the end of the question. So, I don't want to change so much with the difference of 20 centimetres. If the Cody Gakpo shot 20 centimetres here, the narrative would be completely different. So, I just want to maintain some calm, some direction in what we are doing. That’s what I mean.

“There is doubts if you are a manager in this kind of club, [and] you don't win a lot of games, people are going to doubt you. And they have reasons for that, but my point of view is that we need to be clear on our path and not changing so much because we win one game, that's all.”
