Ex-MUFC goalkeeper, Ben Foster has come out to say that he believes Ruud van Nistelrooy would have done a better job at Manchester United than Ruben Amorim. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, Ruud van Nistelrooy would’ve probably done a better job than Amorim if he remained in charge because it is absolutely impossible for him to do much worse than Ruben has done.
Foster added that he really doesn’t see the Portuguese manager as a longterm fix for the club if he is being honest.
His words, “Would Ruud van Nistelrooy have done a better job than Ruben Amorim at Man United, if he’d have stayed on? I think it’s ‘probably’ because he had that respect, and I just don’t think that you could do much worse than Amorim has done.
I don’t think Amorim is [a long term fix] either, to be honest with you. Amorim set his stall out last week when they won that game against Lyon and then he said he was basically going to play the kids for the rest of the season.
It just signals that the Premier League doesn’t matter so subconsciously, all of those players will take their foot off the gas a little bit.”
WOW.
Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.
Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.
Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.
The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992 the left and the right, but he’s not got any sense of danger yet, and empties the midfield area too readily.
