Ruben Amorim Announces Amad Diallo to Start Regularly After Stellar Europa League Performance

After an impressive display and a two-goal performance against PAOK in the Europa League, Manchester United’s Amad Diallo has gained strong support from fans, who are eager to see him secure a starting role under new head coach Ruben Amorim.

In a game that saw United triumph 2-0 over Greek side PAOK, the 22-year-old Ivorian forward seized his rare chance in the starting lineup, scoring both goals and earning Man of the Match honors. Diallo’s accurate 88% passing, successful 3 out of 4 dribbles, and two key chances created left fans wanting more of him on the pitch.

Noting Diallo’s impact, Ruben Amorim, set to officially take over on Monday, voiced his approval for the young star, saying, “Amad has shown exactly the kind of quality and determination we want at Manchester United. He will be seeing much more time on the field as a regular starter. I believe he has a big role to play in our future.”

Diallo’s exceptional performance was evident from the start. The former Atalanta player repeatedly tested PAOK’s defense with his speed and dribbling prowess, making six successful duels and key interceptions throughout the match. His tenacity paid off in the 65th minute, when he headed in the opening goal. Just 13 minutes later, Diallo doubled United’s lead with a precise shot into the far corner, sealing the game before being substituted by Mason Mount.

The Manchester United faithful, who had eagerly awaited a breakthrough for Diallo, took to social media to express their excitement. “Amad was phenomenal tonight,” one fan wrote. “Amorim must keep him in the starting lineup.” Another fan declared, “This performance shows why we don’t need to sign more forwards. Amad deserves his chance!”

Under previous manager Erik ten Hag, Diallo struggled to find consistent playing time, with only 14 appearances this season and just four starts. Fans grew increasingly frustrated with his limited role, especially given his one goal and one assist over 412 minutes of play.

One supporter commented, “It was painful to see Amad sidelined, especially when he was the clear choice over other options. Amorim’s trust in him will be rewarded.”

Manchester United’s victory has improved their standing in the Europa League, moving up to 15th in the 36-team competition, now just three points shy of the top eight. With Ruben Amorim’s dynamic approach, as evidenced by his recent 4-1 win over Manchester City with Sporting CP, fans are hopeful for a brighter future at Old Trafford, with Diallo playing a key part in the journey ahead.
