There is a lot of criticism directed at Manchester United's head coach Ruben Amorim right now, with some even calling for his resignation. But the "Red Devils" boss, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, dispels all the rumors.
Details: The head of INEOS stated that under the circumstances Amorim found himself in, he did a good job. The team's performance was also affected by the numerous injuries they faced.
Quote: "Honestly, with the squad he had and the fact that he came in mid-season, I think he did a great job. Everyone expects miracles overnight. In my view, that's not realistic. I think it was a really impressive game [in the 1-1 draw with Arsenal on Sunday]. They couldn't have worked harder. They couldn't have been more selfless.
If you look at the names on the bench, there were few recognizable ones. Half of the squad is unavailable for Ruben. If you look at the top eight players by salary level at Manchester United, 50 percent of them are unavailable for Ruben. And if the same were true for Manchester City or Liverpool, it would be a completely different case," Ratcliffe said.
Reminder: Previously, Amorim promised fans a better game.
