Manchester United have broken into the top six of the English Premier League table following Matchday Nine, signaling a potential turnaround under manager Ruben Philippo Amorim.
After a disappointing 2024/2025 season, which saw the club finish 15th, United endured a shaky start to the current campaign. Frustrated fans had begun calling for Amorim’s dismissal, directing criticism toward the club’s ownership group, led by Sir Jim Ratcliffe and the Glazer family.
However, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who oversees football operations at the club, stood firmly behind Amorim, expressing continued confidence in the Portuguese coach.
That decision appears to be paying off. For the first time since Amorim took charge, Manchester United have secured three consecutive league victories, the latest being a thrilling 4–2 win over Brighton. The goals came from Matheus Cunha, Luis Éric Casemiro, and Bryan Mbeumo, sealing a crucial result that lifted United to sixth place in the standings.
The win follows two other strong performances: a 2–0 victory over Sunderland and a memorable 2–1 triumph against Liverpool at Anfield, where Bryan Mbeumo and Harry Maguire scored.
United’s recent resurgence has reignited optimism among the Red Devils faithful, many of whom believe the team is finally regaining its rhythm. Supporters are now looking ahead with renewed hope, saying the Premier League title is once again within reach.
