Sir Jim Ratcliffe on Ruben Amorim:
“I think he’s done a great job in the circumstances, frankly, with the squad that he’s had available. The fact he came in mid-season. Everybody expects miracles overnight. It’s not the way, not real life in my view.” 🗣️
“You saw the performance yesterday [against Arsenal]. It was, I thought, a really impressive performance. They could not have worked harder. They couldn’t have been more committed.”
“Half the squad’s missing for Ruben. If you look at the top eight players in terms of salaries in Manchester United, 50 per cent of those are not available to Ruben. You’ve got Mason Mount, you’ve got Luke Shaw, Marcus Rashford has gone, and Jadon Sancho (on loan at Chelsea). And he’s got a bunch of other injuries as you know, so I think he’s done a fantastic job.”
“You have to give the guy a bit of a break. I mean, give me a hard time, I have no problem with that. But give Ruben a break. I think he’s a good guy, he’s working hard, and I think he’s doing a great job.”
“I really, really like Ruben. He’s a very thoughtful guy. Every time I go to the training ground, I speak to Ruben. I sit down and have a cup of coffee with him and tell him where it’s going wrong, and he tells me to f**k off. I like him.”
“If I actually look at the squad available to Ruben, I think he is doing a really good job to be honest. I think Ruben is an outstanding young manager. I really do. He’s an excellent manager and I think he will be there for a long time.” 💬
High praise 🔴👀
