Reflecting on Amorim’s impressive achievements in Portugal, including league titles and cup victories, Berbatov expressed confidence in the manager’s abilities but cautioned him about the unique environment at Manchester United.

“It’s going to be a big change for him… you’ve got big players, which means big egos,” the Bulgarian noted, underscoring the importance of balancing personalities with performance.

The challenge facing Amorim isn’t just tactical but deeply rooted in the need for effective man-management—a skill that could determine the success or failure of his stint in Manchester.

With United currently in a tight spot, Berbatov’s words of caution add an extra layer of intrigue to Amorim’s impending Premier League debut.
