Yesterday, United won the Manchester derby after overcoming City in the final moments. Amad Diallo was the man of the match, causing a penalty that Bruno Fernandes converted and scoring the final 1-2. However, today it has come to light that there may be a ‘mole’ within the ‘red devils’ locker room, since it was known before publishing the call that Rashford and Garnacho were not on Amorim’s list for the match and the eleven that the Portuguese coach was going to put into contention against the ‘sky blues’.
Due to this fact, Manchester United has started an investigation to find the ‘mole’ and several English media outlets have put names on the table. The Sun believes that the protagonists are Amad Diallo and Garnacho, but the Manchester Evening News highlights that the Argentine’s non-call was not due to the fact that his brother was responsible for these leaks and accusations that have also occurred on social networks. and which he himself denied last week. In fact, Rúben Amorim is confident that neither the Ivorian nor the Argentine are to blame for these events. In fact, he praised the African after the game: “He can play in different positions, he is very humble. We have to be very careful with Amad because sometimes in our club we put young players in a special place.”
It’s not a good thing, but let’s move on and see if they find the next starting eleven
Ruben Amorim
Regarding this situation, Rúben Amorim is aware of it and considers that it is something very difficult to know, since “there are many people in the club, the players talk to the agents with their friends”, stating that “it is not a good thing , but let’s move on and go to the next one and see if they find the next starting lineup.” Furthermore, the Portuguese coach was very firm with the team’s internal rules, something that must be strictly followed and anyone who does not do so will be punished.
On the absences of Rashford and Garnacho: “It was not a disciplinary issue”
Rúben Amorim confirmed that both players were not ruled out due to injury, but rather due to a technical decision, but that he has no problem with them: “It was not a disciplinary issue.” To explain the absence of Rashford and Garnacho, the Portuguese explained that the footballers “are fighting for positions, but for me performance in training, performance in matches, the way they dress, the way they eat, the way they eat, way of relating to colleagues, the way of putting pressure on colleagues”.
