Ruben Amorim continues to accumulate poor results at Manchester United after drawing against Fulham, and Gary Neville has some advice for the red devils' coach.
Gary Neville was attentive to Manchester United's draw against Fulham with a 1-1 score in the second round of the Premier League and, after Wayne Rooney criticized Ruben Amorim, it was Gary Neville's turn, also a former red devils player, to give urgent advice to the former Benfica player.
"My initial optimism was slightly shaken because I felt that some old scars were reappearing and opening up", began the former Manchester United defender on his podcast.
Next, the sports commentator highlighted Amorim's team's failures, pointing to the goal and midfield of the club: "I think the goalkeeper still looks very unstable on corner crosses, which cannot continue, because that anxiety increases, and then, in the middle of the midfield I think United has to do something now. He (Amorim) started with Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes, then brought Mason Mount back and Ugarte to play in front of him, which shows that he is really the fourth option. I would like to think that Mainoo could take on this role, but it is quite clear that, at this moment, Ruben Amorim is not counting on him".
Gary Neville considers the absence of Mainoo in midfield a problem that Amorim needs to solve as quickly as possible: "This means it's going to be a problem, so they're going to have to solve it now. The two in the middle there are exposed when the three up front are a little further forward and the five in defense are pushed a little back".
Finally, the legend of Manchester United noted that the English emblem became weaker after the substitutions, focusing on Amorim's latest reinforcement: "I said this last week and it's a bit worrying: Fulham got much stronger when they made their substitutions, I really thought United got worse when they made theirs. Let's be honest: Sesko, at this moment, is far behind in terms of physical preparation or game rhythm".
