Ruben Amorim - Manchester United Head Coach

[Rolaholic]

These foreigners, coming over here, stealing our jobs....

Graeme Souness unsurprisingly was on about this last week in discussion around Amorim's appointment

He doesn't see what the likes of Pep and Klopp have done that British managers couldn't replicate given the chance

 

[SirMattlives]

Souness is such a happy-go-lucky chap, he radiates positivity always.

 

[RDCR07]

How far is Manchester airport from Carrington?

 

[Wheato]

How far is Manchester airport from Carrington?

10 - 15 minutes.

Through Hale Barnes and Altrincham, then Sinderland lane, in the back way.

Was interested myself, by my from what I've seen, it's these players:

• Maguire (injured)
• Malacia (coming back from injury)
• Yoro (coming back from injury)
• Shaw (injured)
• Evans
• Mount
• Casemiro
• Mainoo (injured)
• Rashford
• Antony
• Amad

Correct although i didn't know Amad was in

Didn't he famously manage in Turkey?

[horsechoker]

So he can coach on clay in the meantime?

 

[Sassy Colin]

If by famously , you mean acted like a cnut, then yes.

More appropriately, he managed Benfica in Portugal

 

[Jazz]

Seriously he needs a police escort?
The poor guy must be wondering what the hell.

 

[Jazz]

Also, thank you to all the Cafters who've been following his flight and commenting. Brought a few smiles to my depressed self today.

 

[El-Manos]

Amorim Nadal they call him.

So it really is a bit of a stupid statement. It's alright if he takes Portuguese/Turkish coaches jobs.

Always been a fan of the French Open over Wimbledon.

 

[Wrecking ralf]

I'm not their biggest fan, far from it, but I wish them luck.

Never known anyone to have a beef with pilots. Was your ex a stewardess?

 

[Berbaclass]

Get him on the astroturf lads

 

[vanderpants]

He didn't get a police escort to Carrington, they might have escorted him away from the airport. Also, the majority of the press waiting at Carrington where at the wrong end and missed him arrive

 

[saivet]

Correct although i didn't know Amad was in

Yeah I was a bit surprised that he didn't get a call up too.

You never know with Berties.

Clay is best.

He can meet people in absolute privacy behind that massive, expensive wall Erik had built recently and seemed to announce people.

Are you confusing Ten Hag with Trump?

I like it that he said "British" and not "English".
Maybe he feels that since the Premier League has been won 13 times by British managers he's putting them on par with other nationalities.
Of course, all of those were won by the same Scotsman...

 

[RDCR07]

Still no leaked pictures of him at Carrington. Media and twitter are unusually slow today.

Different wall. One wall was to keep Mexicans out the other was to keep Tacticians out.

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

Ten Hag built a wall to keep Mexicans out?! No wonder he was sacked… can’t be doing stuff like that in this day and age.

 

[Squeaky_Bum_Time]

Haven’t been this excited since Ten Hag talked about eras coming to an end in his press conference.

Other way round but perhaps that's why we didn't sign Edson Alvarez.

If it was the US it would be a full blown motorcade with choppers above. Thisis nothing.

Not to mention the younger lads that have been a regular in first team training for a while

 

[dutchred]

Predict his first team
Onana
Yoro De Ligt Martinez
Mazaroui Ugarte Casemiro Garnacho
Diallo Hojlund Rashford

 

[Bubz27]

We might be in a little bit of trouble here. No work permit but this picture has just leaked.

Spoiler

Yoro De Ligt Martinez

Yeah definitely Bruno won’t start given he is actually hitting form and is the captain.

 

[The holy trinity 68]

Predict his first team
Onana
Yoro De Ligt Martinez

Diallo Hojlund Rashford

Not a chance Bruno doesn't start

Lindelof will start over Yoro IMO due to fitness. Bruno over Rashford too.
