Andy Gray slams Ruben Amorim's United choices, says he's stunned | OneFootball

Ruben Amorim has yet to put Manchester United on the path to Premier League victories this season and has been criticized by Andy Gray.

After a 1-0 defeat to Arsenal in the first round of the Premier League, Ruben Amorim - who asked for the permanence of one of the club's forwards - failed again and Manchester United drew 1-1 with Fulham in the second round of the competition. Who was attentive to the encounter was Andy Gray, a former Scottish striker, who criticized the choices of the Portuguese coach in the match, focusing on the absence of Benjamin Sesko in the starting eleven of the red devils.

"I don't understand this. I'm amazed. I moved to clubs for a lot of money during my career and, believe me, I didn't need three or four weeks to understand how the team worked", said Andy Gray in statements to the Mirror newspaper, thus implying that Benjamin Sesko should already be ready to be a starter.

Next, the former player reinforced the idea, focusing on the value of the Slovenian striker: "Sesko is a renowned football player on the international scene, played in the Bundesliga and cost over 70 million pounds (around 80 million euros)... How can they say he can't get into Manchester United's starting eleven? How so? Must have missed something, seriously".

Ruben Amorim highlighted, after the final whistle, the team's effort: "I think we can do better, but we're trying and that's the most important thing for me. I think we were good in some moments, especially at the beginning of the game. I felt that after the goal, we were thinking about the result, just the result".

Finally, the former Sporting coach dismissed the bad results and focused on what his team needs to do: "This team needs to win games, so we need to focus on performance, on what we need to do. If we think about the results, we forget to do the normal things. We scored a goal and we should have more possession of the ball, press the opponent more, but I think we weren't smart at that moment".
