Ruben amorim admits whether his man utd ideas are better than erik ten hag's


Play all audios:


Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has refused to testify that his ideas are superior to those of his predecessor, Erik ten Hag. However, the 39-year-old admits he has identified


habits he wants to change as he sets out to end a decade of mediocrity since Sir Alex Ferguson's 2013 retirement. United sacked Ten Hag after an abysmal start to the season, which


included four defeats in nine Premier League games and no wins in three Europa League outings. In came Amorim, who would have realised the mammoth task at hand as his side laboured to an


underwhelming 1-1 draw at Ipswich Town on Sunday. Since his arrival, the Portuguese boss has been a breath of fresh air for supporters. He exudes youthful charisma that has been missing in


the Old Trafford dugout since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's honeymoon period. But he has refused to join the Ten Hag pile-on, stressing that he doesn't believe his vision is better than


the Dutchman's, just that it's different. "I have an idea how to play. I'm not saying it is better than the last one; it's different," Amorim told TNT Sports


ahead of tonight's Europa League clash against Bodo/Glimt. "So I think we have to change those habits. I'm not saying they are bad habits, but we have to change different


things in the team to play the way I see football." Amorim has made no secret of his excitement to walk into Old Trafford for the first time as United's head coach. However, he


isn't naive to the demand of three points to build on a 2-0 triumph against PAOK overseen by Ruud van Nistelrooy last time out. Amorim added: "I hope to win the game. That is


really, really important. I know that, they told me here at the club, the noise will be amazing. "It will be a special moment, and I want to have this special moment with a win. That


will be very, very special. "But I already know that it's going to be something that I will live like a dream and I will remember for the rest of my life. "I just want to go


to each game and try to win it, to play to win it. That is the main goal. "At the end of the season, I don't know which place we will get, but for me, the goal is to win titles.


"So it doesn't matter if it is the end of this season or the other season. The goal for everybody here should not be third place or fourth place; it should be winning titles. So


let's see how long it will take." With a victory against the Norwegian champions, Amorim's side could leap from 15th into the top eight, although other results would have to


heavily favour them.
