"Amorim was asked about Mbeumo's import and his role in recruiting him this summer. He's a working machine. He's so good in transitions. He's improving when we are organising the final third, said the head coach, before praising his connection with Amad Diallo at right-wingback. [It] is really hard to beat these two guys because they change positions, they are really fast, they are good in one against one. My role was as a manager to explain what I want from him but it was more the club and you guys."
"We can struggle a lot but it's Manchester United. When Manchester United is there and when we feel that this player wants to come here, no matter what, no matter what the position, no matter if it's Champions League or not, we also give everything to bring these kind of guys and that was the case. Amorim was asked about the club managing a third consecutive Premier League win in the same season for the first time since February 2024. Was really important also the performance, he said. We suffered a little bit in the end but it would not be Manchester United without suffering a little bit. But I think we deserved the win against a very, very good team. I think they [his players] are more confident."
Manchester United defeated Brighton 4-2 at Old Trafford. Matheus Cunha and Casemiro scored in the first half. Bryan Mbeumo made it 3-0 after the break and added a late second, while Danny Welbeck and Charalampos Kostoulas reduced the deficit with Kostoulas scoring in added time. Mbeumo displayed high work-rate, strong effectiveness in transitions, and productive positional interchange with Amad Diallo. The club prioritized recruiting the player despite competitive circumstances. The victory represented United's first sequence of three consecutive Premier League wins in a season since February 2024 and boosted team confidence despite late pressure.
