Darren Fletcher has shared his thoughts on the vision for Man United.
The interim head coach was quizzed about his future after the departure of Ruben Amorim at the start of the week. For the former Red Devils midfielder, it continues to be a case of embracing a dream opportunity and allowing the players to find more confidence after a 2-2 draw against Burnley.
*“I speak to Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox. That’s how the processes work. For me, I’ve been focussing on the job in hand, preparing the team for these two games. There’s been no thoughts or conversations about my future.*
“Jason and Omar have given me full responsibility to take control of these two games, make my own decisions, lead the team, guide the team, prepare the team, and that’s what I’ve been doing. There’s been no conversations with anybody outside of those two people in higher up positions in the club.
“It’s just feedback. It’s just talking to them, trying to paint the picture of what to expect, not to deal with this, how to deal with disappointments in games, how to see out different situations in games.
*“It’s been not a lot of time to practice it. We reviewed the game against Burnley, and there’s some key details in that that we’ll try and improve on. It’s a constant thing that evolves over time for me.*
“It’s conversations, it’s video, it’s coaching on the training ground, it’s learning from new experiences that happened within the game and growing and building as a team and developing confidence and going on a run where you deal with those situations.
“But handling disappointment in football is everything, on and off the pitch, different situations in the game. And it’s recognizing and understanding that you’ve got 90 minutes to rectify things and nothing’s going to be perfect. I think people are striving for perfection.
“Football is about chance, luck, opportunities, different things happen. Look at the game the other night. We concede one shot on goal, another shot off target, and we draw 2-2. But that’s football. We have a disallowed goal, which is unfortunate.
“Things happen in football. You’ve got to be able to deal with them constantly and just keep believing, while there’s 90 minutes on the clock, that you can change it around.”
