Legend tips Amorim to trouble United after Fulham draw

Ruben Amorim continues to accumulate poor results at Manchester United after drawing against Fulham , and Gary Neville has left some advice for the Red Devils' coach.

Gary Neville was attentive to Manchester United's 1-1 draw against Fulham on the second matchday of the Premier League, and after Wayne Rooney criticized Ruben Amorim, it was Gary Neville's turn, also a former Red Devils player, to leave an urgent piece of advice for the former Benfica player.

"My initial optimism was slightly shaken because I felt that some old wounds were reappearing and opening up," said the former Manchester United defender on his podcast.

Next, the sports commentator highlighted the failures of Amorim's team, pointing to the goalkeeper and midfield: "I think the goalkeeper still looks very unstable on crosses from corners, which can't continue, because that anxiety increases, and then, in midfield, I think United needs to do something now. He (Amorim) started with Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes, then put Mason Mount back and Ugarte to play in front of him, which shows that he is indeed the fourth option. I'd like to think that Mainoo could take on that role, but it's quite clear that, at the moment, Ruben Amorim isn't counting on him."

Gary Neville considers Mainoo's absence in midfield a problem that Amorim needs to solve as soon as possible: "That means it's going to be a problem, so they'll have to fix it now. The two in midfield get exposed when the three up front are a bit further forward and the five in defense are pushed back a bit."

Finally, the Manchester United legend noted that the English emblem got weaker after the substitutions, focusing on Amorim's latest signing: "I said this last week and it's a bit concerning: Fulham got much stronger when they made their substitutions, I really thought United got worse when they made theirs. Let's be honest: Sesko, at the moment, is very far off in terms of physical preparation or game rhythm."
