The Day Ruben Amorim played Man Utd in 2012!

[@PrecisionCalc]

As a Portuguese who grew up in this era, I can tell you Amorim was never a super star. But he was a very useful all around player with very little weaknesses. He was a smart player

[@Siewe_Francois]

Like Guadiola

[@princedavid88]

Very efficient on the ball, no waste at all.

[@limoncr5205]

@@Siewe_FrancoisGuardiola was more of a star

[@evertoncostapt]

@limoncr5205 nah.. Guardiola just applauded Romário and Stoychkov, during his career as football, this was the best he could do, mediocre as a player....and as a coach, a lucky guy who could spend all the money on his delusion. He has his merits, but I want to see him manage a team without infinite money, like Atletico Madrid, Sporting, Borussia, real football clubs, not those that launder illegal money in football. And we know Premier League money is dirty.

As a player he was a bit frustrating to play against as he'd always seem to make the right choices, rarely lost possession, forced opponents into awkward positions, he was solid and seemed to make others around him play better. I'd compare him to someone like Joao Moutinho, only faster but not as good tackling or playmaking as Moutinho was

[@SonTran-tr7zi]

Half of MU team at that time were stars. But they played with the pride as The Red Devil. Today players get paid high, play like shit on the pitch, but play hard in the bar. Like Rashford, Antony, Jadon, Casemiro…

Signs of a great manager is when they come they produce results without crying about lack if good players. Tuchel and Klopp showed that. For last ten years, every manager that comes to United kicks out existing players (even if they are good) and brings new expensive ones and then leaves the garbage for the next manager. Ruud showed, the fault was not in players but in man management, i hope Amorim can show the same

[@GuyLogen]

Exactly. I don't want amorim to come in and pull another Ten Hag by buying a bunch of players saying that united need 3-4 players to compete at the highest level again. As a supporter, I think they already have a good squad of players that just need to be managed correctly.

[@lukesullivan1804]

Back when Man Utd could comeback from 2 down!!

[@brixcosmo]

These were the last stages of his career (He’s just 39yo) when he was a lil' bit more heavier than at his peak at SL Benfica. Where let’s be honest, he was never huge but a good center midfielder (that sometimes played as right back). Yet he was always very appreciated by SL Benfica's supporters for his personality/work ethic/simplicity of processes/gameplay and seen as "One of us" even whilst playing for SC Braga (kind of a rival) or even whilst coaching Sporting CP (big rival) which can’t be by any means considered common!
