'He wants to build a team of players who are together'

Manchester United defender Matthijs de Ligt feels the work Ruben Amorim is doing around the first-team group will pay dividends - despite being set to start next season under intense pressure.

"I've experienced many managers and he's one of the most easy to talk to as a player," said De Ligt.

"He's really into details. Before signing new players, first he's looking at the culture, what needs to change and what can be improved to become a better football club. From next season, we will see more of that.

"He wants to build a team of players who are together, fighting for each other and making the most out of what they have.

"Maybe before, you had the best players, but you're not a team."
