Amorim hopes Ghanacho will contribute more goals and assists

The 31st round of the 2024/25 Premier League will see a derby match, with the "Red Devils" Manchester United facing the "Blue Moon" Manchester City at Old Trafford. Coach Amorim mentioned Ganacho's status in an interview, saying that the striker is on the right track in terms of progress, but also hopes that Ganacho can contribute more goals and assists.

After losing 0-1 to Nottingham Forest away in the last round of the league, Manchester United is currently ranked 13th in the standings with 37 points, with 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in the past 5 rounds.

In addition, when talking about the performance of striker Ganachcho, Manchester United coach Amorim said, "I think he is doing the right thing. Like all our players, he needs to improve his decision-making in the attacking third zone. We need to make progress, all players must improve, and maybe Bruno Fernandes is the one who can easily provide assists or goals."

"We have to improve as a team and help Ganajao, but Ganajao is improving his defence and his movement, he is working very hard. He needs to score more goals and provide more assists, that's obvious, but so are the other players."

Amorim also said, "For me, he is a young player who is eager to improve and is improving. Although his performance has not yet reached his best state, this is also a problem for the entire team."

As for the lineup, Amorim said midfielder Mount could start. He said, "He can start, but we still need to control his playing time."

"Kobe Menou has resumed training and we will evaluate whether he can catch up with the game. But of course he can't play the whole game because he hasn't trained for a long time."
