the carnage as team bonding<\/em><\/p>\n<p>After a disappointing 1-1 draw at Ipswich, Amorim told Sky Sports on Sunday: \u201cI just want to spend time with my players.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And the Portuguese tactician is clearly fitting into his new role at United, as Lisandro Martinez and Harry Maguire returned to training.<\/p>\n<p>Amorim and his coaching staff were waiting for his first team squad to arrive on the training pitches in the winter cold on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-81837 lazy loaded\"

be seen laughing and joking before Amorim turned to push Kobbie Mainoo backwards.<\/p>\n<p>The former Sporting manager then lovingly launched at Martinez \u2013 who was darting away for cover.<\/p>\n<p>A beaming Shaw appeared to joke with his new boss before Amorim lovingly urged him off to join Martinez at the start of the line.<\/p>\n<p>It seems as though Amorim was getting his long-term injured players to run through the group as a sort-of initiation to welcome them back into the fold.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full

playful slaps, Martinez, Shaw, Maguire, and several other players started to dash through the artificial tunnel.<\/p>\n<p>Shaw replaced Jonny Evans at left center-back on minute 59, playing his first United minutes since February against Ipswich.<\/p>\n<p>Maguire has been out since leaving Villa Park in a plastic boot while Erik ten Hag was still in command, and Martinez was knocked during Ruud van Nistelrooy\u2019s penultimate game as manager.<\/p>\n<p>However, ahead of United\u2019s Europa League match against Bodo\/Glimt on Thursday, supporters quickly saw how close the group has gotten.<\/p>\n<p>One wrote: \u201cNeeds to be careful with Luke Shaw, could put him out for the rest of the season with those shoves \ud83e\udd23.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A second said: \u201cI\u2019m definitely feeling he\u2019s going to bond the squad stronger here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another added: \u201cAmorim\u2019s more connected with the players due to his younger age.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While a fourth wrote: \u201cStop pushing Shaw, he\u2019s gonna get hurt!\ud83e\udd23\ud83e\udd23\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A fifth replied: \u201cThis club needs more chemistry, and he is trying to build it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One more wrote: \u201cIt\u2019s heartwarming to watch.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>United will welcome 12 per cent of an entire town\u2019s population on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>For the crucial match, the visiting team, who lost twice to Arsenal in 2022, is expecting 6,500 spectators.<\/p>\n<p>Out of the 53,000 residents of the town, that means that one in eight of them will be at the game.<\/p>\n<p>Martinez might play, but Maguire isn\u2019t thought to be well enough to return to action right away following a lengthy break.<\/p>\n<p>Amorim said: \u201cLicha is ready. He didn\u2019t stop playing for too much time so I feel he is ready.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a different situation with Harry, we need them both but they are in a different situation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey are both training, Harry soon will be on the pitch also.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUBEN AMORIM was caught playfully SLAPPING Manchester United players in a bizarre training session ahead of his Old Trafford debut.
