After the match with Brighton with a weak result, Ruben Amorim could not hide his anger. The Portuguese captain smashed the TV in the dressing room. Besides, the 39-year-old strategist also said that it was the worst version in the history of Man United.
A few days later, Amorim had to apologize. The captain of the "Red Devils" said that it was an outburst of young coaches and hoped everyone would forgive him. Amorim's apology to the media was highly appreciated because this young strategist showed his willingness to learn and focus on his expertise, instead of worrying about scandals off the field.
Erik ten Hag has never apologised to the English fans and media before. This time, Ruben Amorim did the opposite and received great support. However, Amorim's words and actions upset some of the M.U players. Some of them almost cried when they were angered by the captain's TV smashing.
Bruno Fernandes is the captain of The Red Devils and he needs to speak up after a series of recent scandals. Contrary to what many people think, the Portuguese midfielder said he felt angry when he saw and heard such actions coming from Amorim.
"To be honest, I feel angry. I don't want the coach to say such things about the team. I know Amorim himself doesn't want to say these things.
Maybe Amorim didn’t act in a very thoughtful way in his anger. We are both Portuguese so we understand each other very quickly. In fact, all coaches are like that. I have been here since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. He is a very calm person but sometimes he has moments of anger like that.
When you are in charge of a team, of course you want to win every game. The results speak for themselves and sometimes you have to say things like that. I think the players probably heard those words when we lost. As for Amorim, he was like he was in the same boat as the team.
Amorim spoke honestly about his feelings and thoughts. We should respect that and not be too angry about it" - Bruno Fernandes shared.
With the team still struggling in the bottom half of the rankings, Bruno Fernandes' actions are considered to be that of a captain. What M.U needs now is to quickly put an end to negative rumors aimed at the team's dressing room.
Amorim, although a coach, has just arrived and does not understand the team as well as Bruno. The unity of opinion between these two important figures is essential for the "Red Devils" to be stable from now until the end of the season.
