"We're only a week or so away from when I was thinking the manager was under pressure, by the way, so we've got to be really careful here, Gary Neville said on his Sky Sports podcast. We could be there again in a couple of weeks, it's that type of season, that type of feeling. That's never happened with Amorim Gary Neville"
"And I hear this: a few weeks ago, I was worried about the players buying into the system and the way of playing, and I truly was. But what I was never worried about was [Amorim] losing the changing room. No, that's never happened with Amorim. The players really like him, they like him a lot ... The players really like him and want to do well for him, and I think that's come through in the last week or so."
United won 3-2 at Brighton, marking three consecutive victories and four wins in five matches, lifting them to sixth in the Premier League. The club mood shifted sharply after an earlier Carabao Cup exit to Grimsby had raised questions over Amorim's future. Concerns about players adopting the system had existed, but there was no concern about Amorim losing the changing room, as players strongly back him. Recent performances represented a crucial period that restored momentum and belief around Amorim and the squad, producing renewed optimism about what could be achieved this season.
