Mazraoui confident United can "come back"Red Devils currently 13th in PLAmorim appointed after Erik ten Hag's sackingFollow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱WHAT HAPPENED?
Mazraoui joined United in the summer and has seamlessly slotted into the first-team, making 19 appearances in all competitions. The Red Devils have endured a sticky start, however, and are currently languishing in the bottom half of the Premier League table; in 12 games, they have won four, drawn four, and lost four, with that form losing Erik ten Hag his job.

Mazraoui is insistent that United will "come back" after appointing Amorim, but the former Bayern Munich defender has pleaded for patience, as the Portuguese gets to work at Old Trafford. Under his management, they have already drawn 1-1 with Ipswich Town and beaten Bodo/Glimt 3-2 in the Europa League.
WHAT MAZRAOUI SAID
Mazraoui said: "I came here to win – and it will come. Manchester United is too big not to. Everyone here knows that, everybody sees that and everybody feels that – especially us as players.
"We are going to come back – and we are going to come back even harder. But I think that when you want to implement a new style of play that isn’t even close to how we played before, no-one can expect us to understand everything the manager has in his mind right from the start.
"So yes, of course, this is going to be a tough time – but come on, we are all top players and we play the game to win. Eventually we will get to wherever the coach wants us to be. We have unbelievable players, so of course we can adapt – and I think we are showing that. We have to get used to the new style, but I don’t think it will take too long – even if at the moment it is tough."
