United legend Paul Scholes recently stated that Portuguese tactician Amorim \u201cdoesn\u2019t get the club\u201d.<\/a> Quizzed on whether comments such as that are making his job harder, Amorim – who has won only 23 of his 58 games at the helm – said: \u201cNo, it\u2019s not winning \u2013 not winning is the issue. If I\u2019m winning I can go to the games on a horse, arrive there, play with just two defenders and everything will be fine. The problem is that as a manager I\u2019m not doing good enough and that is a fact also. So that is the only problem.<\/p>\n

\u201cMe as a manager of Manchester United, we are underachieving. We should have more points, especially this season. So I take that, naturally. Sometimes they [critical former players] don\u2019t have all the information and they see Manchester United with the standards that they lived here. Always winning. So it\u2019s hard for them to see their club in this situation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Scholes also questioned why Mainoo finds himself on the fringes of the fold<\/a>, with Nicky Butt, Rio Ferdinand and Paul Ince other ex-United stars to have adopted that stance<\/a>. Amorim added: \u201cI know that for you guys there are some players that you believe in a lot and I believe a lot but sometimes I have to make choices.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe play with two midfielders. We could change in the future but Kobbie Mainoo is playing in the same position as Bruno Fernandes and sometimes it\u2019s really hard to take Bruno Fernandes out of the team and that is the only reason.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"United legend Paul Scholes recently stated that Portuguese tactician Amorim \u201cdoesn\u2019t get the club\u201d.
