Carrick backs Amorim after United loss to Arsenal

Manchester United opened the Premier League season with a 1-0 loss to Arsenal. Amorim congratulated his players and stood by Bayindir, who took the heat for the setback, signaling a protective but performance-focused approach.

Michael Carrick praised Amorim on Premier League Productions, saying the manager fought for the group and kept the bigger picture in view. The remarks reinforce a siege mentality at Old Trafford and draw a line to a Sir Alex Ferguson era, according to supporters.

The article shows how a manager's public stance can shape a team's morale and identity. Amorim's blend of backing for his players with clear, sharp assessment mirrors a long tradition at United that values unity as much as results.

If United push forward with this approach, it could influence recruitment, development, and how the club handles media coverage. Critics may worry about overprotecting players, but supporters see it as a necessary balance to sustain belief through a rough patch.
