The seasoned Brazilian midfielder has advised his teammates against being preoccupied with the title race or securing a Champions League spot for the time being. Instead, he suggests adopting a ‘day-to-day’ approach. Despite holding leads in all three of their recent Premier League matches, Manchester United has failed to secure a win.

In an interview with ESPN Brazil, the former Real Madrid star expressed his frustration, stating, “It’s difficult. This is the point that bothers me most about not fighting for titles. Being 20 points behind first place. Sometimes, I can’t even sleep to try to think about doing something different. It’s reality. There’s no point in thinking about title or Champions League places, we need to think about today’s games.”

He emphasized the importance of taking things one day at a time, highlighting the missed opportunity to secure nine points in recent matches, managing only two. He stressed the need to concentrate on the upcoming game against Bournemouth and to approach each match individually.

Reflecting on the recent match against Liverpool, he praised the team’s performance against a formidable opponent but acknowledged the challenge they faced. Despite staging a remarkable comeback with goals from Bruno Fernandes and Kobbie Maioo, a late foul by Aaron Wan-Bissaka allowed Liverpool to equalize from the penalty spot through Mohamed Salah.

Looking ahead, Manchester United, currently trailing by 11 points behind fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur, faces an important Premier League fixture against Bournemouth next Saturday.
