MU will change the way the following matches decided from coach Ruben Amorim in the 2025/26 season.
Previously, the team often stayed at the city center hotel at night before the home competition, then moved to the field. However, when Erik Ten Hag was from Ajax, he changed this habit.
Ten HAG asks the players at Old Trafford 4 hours before the ball rolling. They drove their own cars to the yard, eating before the match at Old Trafford. The Dutch military leader also converted a large guest room into the yard into a living room before the match.
However, Amorim decided to eliminate that way. According to the new plan, the players will gather at Carrington, eat together at the training ground and move in groups to Old Trafford.
MU confirmed that it will be available at Old Trafford at 14h45 (local time) to confront Arsenal at 10:30 pm tonight in Vietnam time.
Sharing with MuTV, Amorim said: “I always feel that when we come to Old Trafford, Old Trafford must be the center of the match, but we cannot sit there waiting 4 hours before the pitch.
With facilities in Carrington, we can prepare carefully before the match here, then when coming to Old Trafford, we must feel the atmosphere from the fans and immediately enter the battle, not to lose the excitement connected with the fans.
We know there are many people waiting there, wanting to meet and sign. We will try to maintain that. So, for fans, the experience will not be different. But for us, this is better because we will feel the energy from the audience, instead of sitting in the yard for too long. “
Shortly ago, MU also inaugurated the new Carrington center worth £ 50 million. Omar Berrada CEO said: “I am sure that it will bring a positive impact on the performance of our teams.”
