Ruben Amorim didn’t inherit a project.
He walked into a mess and rebuilt Manchester United with his bare hands.
I bow to the grind🙇🏽
For all the chat around Yan Diomandé (and rightly so), Christ Inao Oulaï has been excellent in midfield in this first half. Another gem of this Ivorian team. 20 years old, very good with Trabzonspor last season who value him at €40-50m. Big European clubs are also following him.
Portugal are spearheading an attack brimming with talent with a 41-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo, who is nowhere near the required level.
It wasn't even as if he was doing things badly – he wasn't doing them at all.

Francisco Conceição delivered a perfect cut-back to Bruno Fernandes, but Cristiano Ronaldo tried to make the chance his own and ended up getting in the way.
Bruno's reaction said everything. He knew it was a clear goalscoring opportunity, and all Ronaldo had to do was leave it. 😬🇵🇹
Stating the obvious but Ronaldo is holding this Portugal side back. Saw it at last Euros and World Cup qualifying vs Ireland. So much potential in this squad but they’re wasting their prime years accommodating a 41-year-old up front. It’s absolutely insane.
