Ruben Amorim in his programme notes for the Palace game tomorrow:
“When I first arrived at Manchester United in November, one of the first things I did was take a tour of Old Trafford so I could learn more about the club’s history.” 🗣️
“I had heard about the Munich Air Disaster, but in taking that tour and really absorbing the details of the tragedy and how the club reacted afterwards, I started to understand how special this club really is.”
“Today, because we are in a difficult season, it feels like there is so much pressure on us, but when you look back at how the club responded to such a devastating event in 1958, we have it easy in comparison.”
“That’s why it is so important to keep honouring the memory of Munich, as we mark our closest home game to the 67th anniversary of the disaster next Thursday.”
“If you come here, you know you are joining a club with a history of winning, but it is more than that. More than trophies and success, there is a history of spirit and determination. There is a strength in this club that I think is unique. Every day, we need to show that strength.” 💬
