Diogo Dalot Responds to Ruben Amorim's Call for Leadership

Posted : 06 January 2025

Diogo Dalot, the Manchester United defender, revealed that Ruben Amorim's call for senior players to step up in the team's fight to overcome their struggles motivated him to take action. The Portugal international played a pivotal role in United’s 2-2 draw against Premier League leaders Liverpool, notably frustrating Trent Alexander-Arnold.

 

 Amorim had urged his squad's experienced players to lead by example, encouraging them to help ease the burden on younger or more uncertain teammates.

 

Dalot acknowledged the impact of Amorim's words, describing how it spurred him into a more proactive role on the field. The defender expressed his awareness of his responsibilities within the team, knowing that his leadership could make a difference.

 

 "It pinched me," Dalot said, emphasizing how Amorim’s message resonated with him and inspired him to contribute even more to United's efforts. He made it clear that he is committed to helping his teammates both on and off the pitch.

 

Amorim, who took over at Old Trafford amid a difficult season, is still grappling with challenges as United sit in 13th place in the Premier League. After a string of painful defeats, Amorim’s lack of preparation time due to the demanding schedule has been a consistent issue.

 

 However, the team showed improvement in their performance against Liverpool, which Dalot attributed to having a full week of preparation, allowing them to refine their game and build better understanding on the pitch.

 

Dalot emphasized that having sufficient training time was key to United’s performance against Liverpool, suggesting that the added time for preparation helped the team become more organized and cohesive. "It becomes more natural," he explained, referring to how knowing the game plan and positioning made their approach to the match more fluid.

 

He highlighted the improved structure and compactness of the team's play, which they aim to build on as they prepare for upcoming challenges, including their FA Cup match against Arsenal.
