Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has charged his players to be more clinical in front of goal against Chelsea ahead of Saturday’s Premier League clash.
Amorim is refusing to stray away from his principles, but it is becoming increasingly difficult to see how those principles can bring the improvement that Manchester United fans crave.
With the 2025-26 season just over a month old, United have lost two of their four Premier League matches and have been dumped out of the EFL Cup by Grimsby Town.
Their sole win has come at home against Burnley, and even after a dominant performance, it required a last-gasp Bruno Fernandes penalty to secure a 3-2 victory.

However, Amorim, in a chat with TribalFootball, stated that the Red Devils need to be more aggressive to win games.
“We used that time to analyse the last game, analyse the next game and prepare different things. I think, again, we are playing well until we reach the boxes. We need to be more clinical.
“If you see the number of shots, the xG, all these things are good, but if you don’t score, or win games, it doesn’t matter. Then, again, I said after the last game, the way we suffer the goals, we can avoid it.
“We are being naive and we need to be more aggressive to win games. We just need to maintain how we are playing, with improving in the opponent’s box and our box.
“That was the focus of the week, especially with Chelsea, which is a team that crosses they have more guys in the box and we suffer a little bit against Fulham and we work a lot during the week on that. It’s always the same cycle. Analyse what we did and improve for the next week.”
