Post-match press conference with Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim after their 4-1 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux Stadium in the Premier League.

Bruno Fernandes scored twice, with Bryan Mbeumo and Mason Mount also on target for United after Jean-Ricner Bellegarde had levelled for Wolves just before half time. The result moves United up the table and deepens Wolves’ relegation worries after another heavy home defeat.

Amorim explains how his side reacted at half time, says the players realised they had everything to win the game and praises the pace and quality they showed in the second half against a Wolves team in a really hard moment as a club.

He stresses that it does not matter what run United are on or how they played in the last game, only the way they play the next one, and says they sometimes need to find a different way to play, with Bournemouth next described as “a different world”.

He confirms the club are in contact with national teams over the situations of Bryan Mbeumo, Amad and Noussair Mazraoui, and talks in detail about Mason Mount’s form, saying he can defend and attack, that the quality when he touches the ball is really good, and that he is a different type of leader who leads by example every day around Carrington.

Amorim also picks out Ayden Heaven for praise, calling him really hard to beat and highlighting his adaptation in the centre with Matthijs de Ligt and Harry Maguire both carrying problems.

00:00Ruben, congratulations on the win, are you particularly pleased with how the players
00:16were out in the second half given how the first half ended?
00:19Yes, I think once again after we scored a goal we were a little bit sloppy on the ball
00:26and that gave a little bit of hope to the opponent but we created a lot of chances in the first
00:31half also, we should have finished that half in a different way and then in the half time
00:39they understood that we have everything to win the game, to win three points and they
00:43did that, I think the pace, the quality that we showed in the second half, understanding
00:47that the moment of Wolves is really hard as a team, as a club, so we took advantage of
00:52that.
00:53On the front three, I think that's the time they started together that looked pretty
00:57good in all those five games, are you encouraged how well they've adapted because the system
01:02normally you'd have an out-and-out striker in there?
01:04Yeah, I think especially with system v system, if you take some of the reference and Cunha
01:12can help us to do that, we need to avoid the crosses and I think we have more space to corner
01:19runs, all this type of play and the quality that they have when they have a little bit
01:23of space, I think they did really well and they understood the type of game that they
01:27should play with the characteristics that they have.
01:30time.
01:31When you get a win that size, I know we've had this conversation many times before, is it
01:37more important now that you show that tonight is not a one-off, that you can put these runs
01:44of good performances together?
01:47First of all, I think we are in the league that is really hard to win every week and
01:52you can sense that by watching the table.
01:56Then this is a specific case, we face a team that is really, really struggling and you can
02:01sense in every situation of the game.
02:05So the next game is going to be completely different, so we need to know that.
02:10But in our club it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter the run that you have, the moments if
02:15you played quite well the last game, what matters is the way we are going to play the
02:20next one.
02:21So let's focus on that.
02:23We need to improve the way we play, I think we need to find a different way to play sometimes.
02:30So we are thinking about that, we are working on that and Vermont is going to be a different
02:35world.
02:36Have you been given any concrete decision about Brandon Bwemel and Ahmad and Nusa over Africa?
02:44The club is talking with the national teams, let's wait for the middle of the week.
02:54I don't know for sure, but we are doing our job and the national teams are talking with
02:59us and that is a good sign.
03:02Let's see.
03:03Ruben, you have said before about how much you appreciate Mason Mann, do you really feel
03:07he is starting to live out consistently strong performances now in United?
03:10I think also the way we play is if you compare the pass that he had with Chelsea, he is the
03:19same and then he has a great quality, he can defend, he can attack, it is really the quality
03:26that when he touches the ball, he is really good.
03:30It is not a surprise for me, but of course we need to take care of him sometimes.
03:35Sometimes you need to protect them in training and in games, but when you build that, it is
03:41going to happen the same thing with Luke Shaw.
03:44So he is going to build that and he is going to be really important for our club.
03:48Do you see him as a leader in the dressing room?
03:50It is a different type of leader.
03:52It is not like Lice, for example.
03:55It is a guy that leads by the example.
03:58It does not matter the situation, Mason Mount is always the same thing.
04:02Training, talking, dealing with people around Carrington.
04:06That is not easy.
04:07So he is a very good player.
04:11When you touched on Mason there, is that why he has not been in the team all the time,
04:16not starting all the games?
04:17Sometimes it is the tactical issue when you play a striker and sometimes Cunha is going
04:23to that position, but sometimes it is also we need to protect Mason Mount.
04:30We need to build the same thing that we did with Luke last year.
04:33We are doing with Mason taking care of him.
04:36Just on the hard time, I think Mason mentioned some easy words, shall we say, and you said
04:41that the team realised they had everything to beat.
04:43What was that like?
04:44It is simple.
04:46I think you need to be really distracted when you look at Everton.
04:52Three points that we could have.
04:54More two points against West Ham.
04:56Look at the table.
04:57Look at the environment.
04:59Look at everything.
05:00So if you have everything there, let's do everything.
05:03Sometimes you get the result.
05:05Sometimes you lose points, but I think if you look at the first half, you need to understand
05:12that we need to win the second half.
05:15It doesn't matter the result.
05:16If you score one, you need to score two.
05:18And then with a different margin in the game, you can play the ball with more quality.
05:27I'm really proud of everyone today.
05:40They did a very good job.
05:41I think Aiden has a great future.
05:44He's really hard to beat.
05:48He adapts really well in the centre.
05:50We have Mata and Harry with problems.
05:54Of course, he needs more rhythm to play 90 minutes.
06:00Sometimes he plays man-v-man in that position.
06:03And I think he did really well.
06:05And I really enjoyed to see him with the ball.
06:07And that was a very good point in his game.
06:09I know after West Ham, you said you maybe hope to have him tonight.
06:13Is there any update on when he comes back?
06:15I don't know.
06:16I don't know.
06:17Sometimes you have an idea, but then you have to see day by day.
06:21So I'm not going to say that when he's going back.
06:24Thank you guys.
