Amorim’s friend still hopeful for ex-Sporting man: He just needs time

Evandro Roncatto still has hope in Ruben Amorim's situation at Manchester United . After leaving Sporting, his former teammate's journey with the Red Devils has not been easy, and many of the club's fans in the North of England want the dismissal of the Portuguese coach .

Evandro Roncatto: "Amorim? He needs to be given time, at least until January"

“ Ruben's future will depend heavily on the next game, and we must not forget that United's schedule has been a difficult one . He needs to be given time, at least until January. If things continue to go poorly, then a change would be justified,” said the current sporting director of Oliveira do Hospital to the newspaper Record.

Next, Evandro Roncatto stated that this is the first time in Ruben Amorim's career as a coach that he has faced criticism: “ As a coach, this is the first time he is experiencing this situation. In Portugal, he succeeded at every club he managed . Ruben Amorim is an intelligent guy, he knows what he's doing, and he will certainly work to correct what is wrong, making things go better.”

In conclusion, the sporting director of Oliveira do Hospital highlighted a fact he considers essential to the challenging work of the former Sporting coach at Manchester United : “It should be remembered that, in the first six months, Ruben Amorim had to work with players who were not chosen by him .”

The former player hopes a new opportunity will be granted to his friend: “Many of these players remained in the squad because he simply couldn't just clean out the locker room. We're talking about players with million-dollar contracts... Honestly, I hope he is given time to change this scenario,” concluded Evandro Roncatto.
