Manchester United Midfielder Kobbie Mainoo Is Proving Ruben Amorim Wrong

Mainoo started and impressed in four consecutive wins under Carrick, helping Manchester United rise into the Premier League top four and boost Champions League hopes.

  • Last month, Manchester United midfielder Mainoo started and created Bryan Mbeumo's opener against Tottenham, impressing in all four wins since Michael Carrick took charge.
  • Ruben Amorim repeatedly left Mainoo on the bench, with all 14 Premier League appearances under him coming from the substitute bench, and said `You always ask me the same thing.`
  • Michael Carrick said `Yes, there's no doubt` about Mainoo's level, as he has seven goals and five assists in 26 appearances, highlighting his all-round skill.
  • Under Michael Carrick, the club has a 100 per cent record that has lifted them into the top four and left them three points off third-placed Aston Villa.
  • Judging by social reaction on X, fans backed Mainoo's recall during the 2-0 Tottenham win, while Gary Lineker joked about legal action against Ruben Amorim and Alan Shearer said Amorim must be cringing.
