Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim has stated what his players must start doing if they dream of winning the Premier League title.
United secured two wins across Amorim’s opening three games in charge against Bodo/Glimt and Everton.
However, they suffered their first defeat under the new boss against Arsenal in midweek.
Goals from Jurrien Timber and William Saliba handed Arsenal a 2-0 victory, with United now slipping into the bottom half of the Premier League table ahead of their upcoming match against Nottingham Forest.
Ahead of the game, Amorim spoke openly about the problems affecting his side and how much work there is to do before United can compete.
“Impossible to win the Premier League without a team that doesn’t run,” he was quoted on Sky Sports.
“You can do a starting line-up with the best players on the planet, without running they also won’t win. We have to run like mad dogs, if not we won’t win.
“The problem is can they cope with that? If they are used to it in training, they will do it in games.
“They can improve. You cannot be faster, but you can run more in training. They are professional athletes. Every coach has a different method of pressing.”
The former Sporting Lisbon coach described United as a massive club, but not a massive team.
“We have some good things, but you can feel that there is so much to do. We have to be better in the final third.
“Our players have to understand that it is a difficult position. We are not the best team in the league, but our past is the best one in the league.
“We have a problem, but we have to focus on the little details.
