Amad working on Mbeumo link-up
Amad believes his on-field combination with Bryan Mbeumo is being helped by their relationship away from the pitch.
The pair combined to good effect just over a minute into the fabulous 2-1 win at Liverpool last time out, with the Ivory Coast international feeding the Cameroon attacker for a sharp finish past Giorgi Mamardashvili.
With Amad at wing-back and Bryan also on the right, the duo are beginning to develop an understanding that has already excited a lot of supporters.
In an exclusive chat with club media, our no.16 acknowledged that Mbeumo's quality was already evident during his time at Brentford, and he hopes they can continue flourishing, with Brighton & Hove Albion up next on Saturday.
"At the beginning, because he was a new player, we were trying to understand each other," said Amad. "But now we find a solution: when he goes to right wing-back, I go as a no.10. When he plays as a no.10, I stay as a right wing-back.
"So I think now we have a very good relationship, even outside the pitch. This is very important: not only to have a good relationship in the pitch, but also to have a good relationship outside the pitch, to put some things [together].
"A player has to be ready to play every position. I'm just here to give my best every game.
"If Bryan plays no.10, I am so happy and, if I play no.10, I'm so happy," he added. "But, for me, the most important thing is helping the team.
"If we win, we are happy!
"It's nice. We've got good players and big talents. We knew already that Bryan, with Brentford, what he did with them was big things. So we tried to bring him here to do the same and he is doing the same. We are really happy for him because he's a humble guy, a really nice guy.
"I hope he can help us to score more goals, especially in the big games."
While the marvellous victory on Merseyside will linger long in the memory, Amad is determined that the side backs it up with another three points against the Seagulls, who are looking to make it four straight wins at Old Trafford.
"It was a good day for everyone, because it was long time - nine years - that we didn't win away against them," he said of the success against Liverpool. "So this was very special for everyone.
"But we want to keep going like this. The big test for us is Saturday, against Brighton. We have to try to win this game to build the confidence and try to do a better season this season."
