🚨🎙️ Micah Richards joking about Rúben Amorim fixing Manchester United’s discipline issues:
🗣️ “It took Amorim less than a week to identify some of the biggest problems in that Manchester United squad 😭
It was like he walked in and said to Rashford, ‘So you’re the face of the club, academy boy, and you still arrive late for training and do whatever you want? Bro, you’re suspended. You’re not playing in the Manchester derby.’ 😂
Then he looked at Garnacho and said, ‘So you’re the one people are calling the next Cristiano Ronaldo? Cristiano at 18 was working nonstop, tracking back, defending, attacking, no ego, no pride. Your mentality is nowhere near that level, my friend. You and Rashford are both out of the derby.’ 😭
Now one of them isn’t even an option for Barcelona anymore, while the other is waiting for a possible loan move to West Ham.
Amorim must be respected for that level of courage 😂👏”
🚨 Bryan Mbeumo on Manchester United’s return to the Champions League:
“You know… I’ve never played Champions League football before. Few days ago me and Matheus (Cunha) were talking about how both of us were completely locked in on joining United even before the moves happened because it was genuinely our dream club. And now look at us…we’re about to play Champions League football with United.
What makes it emotional for us is that we didn’t join when everything was already successful & comfortable. We joined when people were still doubting the club. We saw the vision. We saw the potential. We saw a club desperate to bring the glory back. And we said:
‘Yeah… we want to be part of that.’ That’s what makes this feeling special.
Because it’s one thing attaching yourself to success after everything is already built…it’s another thing helping rebuild the success yourself. That’s how you truly become attached to something forever.”
🗣️ Patrice Evra on Sir Alex Ferguson's team talk before the Champions League final in 2008:
"Ferguson said: 'I've already won. We don't even need to play this game.' We were like:
What is he talking about? The game hasn't even started.
Then Ferguson turned to me, 'Look at Patrice,' he said. 'He's got 24 brothers and sisters.
Imagine what his mother had to do to put food on the table!'
Then he turned to Wayne Rooney: 'Look at Wayne. He grew up in one of the toughest parts of Liverpool.' Then he turned to Park Ji-sung; 'Look at Ji, he's come all the way from South Korea.'
As the boss talked about our stories, we began to realize that he was referring to a fellowship. We were not just a football team - we were people from every corner of the world, from all kinds of cultures and races and religions. And now we were there, together in a dressing room in Moscow, fighting for a common cause. Through football, we become brothers.
'THIS is my victory' Ferguson said. We all got goosebumps. Then we went out and won the Champions League. That's Manchester United. That's why I love this game."
