“Amorim taught us two things that no manager has ever done before.We’re growing fond of him: Marcus Rashford, a winger for Manchester United, lists TWO ways that Ruben Amorim has helped the team thus far, and it’s simply incredible.

On the same day, he took charge of training for the first time, with the Portuguese having just ten senior players available due to the ongoing international break.

As a result, several academy players joined in the session.

Amad, who is thought to be impressing his new boss, Marcus Rashford and Kobbie Mainoo were among the training squad.

The former Sporting Club boss faces a tough trip to Portman Road on Sunday, 24 November, where he will take charge of his first game as United boss against Ipswich Town.

Fans have been paying close attention to the footage of training ahead of the fixture as they try to piece together his potential starting line-up.

The Sun Sport reported that the players have been ‘blown away’ by Amorim’s ‘Mourinho-style’ confidence.

“Even before Monday’s first session, the players have been very impressed,” a source explained.

“Then, after the sessions, they are blown away by his energy, approach and confidence.

“There’s definite Mourinho vibes in the way he speaks and his self-belief – but the style is his own.

“The players think he’s very approachable and that he will understand them. Some of them are calling him Mourinho 2.0.”
