Amorim addresses Garnacho’s future and points out Man. United’s main problem
Portuguese coach spoke at a press conference on the eve of the match against Southampton
Practically, since Ruben Amorim arrived at Old Trafford, the cases of Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho have been on the agenda.
In a press conference on the eve of the match against Southampton , the topics returned to ‘top of the table’ and, despite the Portuguese coach having ‘evaded’ questions about the Englishman, when asked if he sees the Argentine having a bright future at the service of Manchester United , was full of praise.
“Of course. He has talent. You need to learn to play a different position. Need to play better inside. He has improved a lot in the recovery position, when he doesn’t have the ball. But when you do this, sometimes you are not in the right place to make transitions like you have in the past. I prefer to defend and then build with the whole team to reach the last third», he began by saying.
«He is finding the best way to play in this system. He is improving during training. He was a starter in the last game. Let’s see tomorrow. I think he changed the way he sees himself”, said Amorim, who then pointed out Man’s main problem. United : «I think we lack goals.»
“I think this is our team’s biggest problem. The lack of goals and the lack of ability to play in the opponent’s last third, to control games, to control games more. So we know that. We need time to train. We try to pass on information, but it’s more difficult for us to score goals that way [in the opponent’s last third] than in transitions”, he concluded.
