Gary Neville did not retain his review of Manchester United while discussing what he believes is the best thing about Ruben Amorim at the club.
Man United suffered another setback on Sunday afternoon, falling 1-0 in Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League after James Maddison’s strike in the first half turned out to be the difference.
The Spurs dominated possession very early, but United had the first chances, with Rasmus Højlund, Alejandro Garnacho and Diogo Dalot testing all the hosts in the first ten minutes. However, it was Tottenham who made their moment count, while Maddison jumped on a rebound to advance his side.
United continued to push and created openings, but their finish dropped them. They went to the half-time to drag and, despite a more urgent emergency in the second half, I could not find any equalization.
What does Gary Neville say about Ruben Amorim?
Speaking after the match, the former captain of United Neville explained that he felt the only good thing about the mandate of Amorim to United so far, his press conferences, which says a lot about the dark that the club is dark on the field.
“The best thing on Ruben Amorim so far has been his press conferences, the way he communicates his vision and his idea, and that he wants to succeed in Man United,” Neville in Sky Sports told.
“I don’t think there is something on the field I have seen so far, in the results or performance, which tell me that we are looking at a very good team. We are not. It’s a really poor team, this united team. But even if it is a poor team, there are ways to make a poor team better. Are they there?
“He died in a ditch compared to the moment he said very early:” I’m not going to change my idea “, so now he can’t.
“And that is, I suppose, a problem in some respects, because I think there was probably, with these 11 players they had on the field, they had a better way to bring them into a system who would have indicated that they have indicated that they felt more comfortable.
“But he cannot change this now because of what he said before. He really stuck his flag in the ground and that’s how he will go down. But performance levels are far from pretty good and it will know.
