Manchester United coach Ruben Amorim may have steered his team to the Europa League final but he is still a worried man over a number of reasons.
Manchester United coach Ruben Amorim watched his team seal a place in the Europa League final on Thursday and while his players celebrated with the fans, he was left worried about a number of things.
United beat Athletic Bilbao 4-1 on Thursday night in the semi-final second leg to win the tie 7-1 on aggregate, after a 3-0 victory in Spain in the first leg and unlike last week, it was not easy as they had to withstand some nervous moments to win.
Bilbao scored in the first half and went for it in the better part of the second half until Amorim made changes that turned the game on its head with four late goals easing off the tensions.

Amorim was therefore quick to remind his team that they have not won anything yet and will need to be at their best to win against Tottenham, who have already beaten them home and away this season, while he is keeping his fingers crossed that he does not lose key players to injuries.
Why is Ruben Amorim Worried?
“I'm just worried about the next game, trying to not get any injuries for the final. If we don't win the final, it means nothing for us,” said Amorim after the match as quoted by Dailymail.
“We have to have a full squad [against Tottenham], stay in the game and have a bit of luck and we have to be clinical.
“It’s quite similar for me and Ange [Postecoglou]. It is a tough moment [for us both] and one of us is going to win. It's going to be a big final and we will try to win.”

“We want to give something to the fans. I am stressed already because of the final. If you don’t win it, it is nothing. We are happy to be there. Let’s see.
