Dwight Yorke believes Amorim only has two quality players on whom he can base his Manchester United team.
Dwight Yorke has shared his thoughts on Manchester United’s current squad dynamics under manager Ruben Amorim, emphasizing the importance of building the team around Amad Diallo and Bruno Fernandes. Yorke highlighted Amad’s standout performances this season, noting his four goals and six assists, and sees him as a key player for the future. As for Fernandes, Yorke acknowledged his continued quality despite being 30, but suggested that Amorim cannot rely on him as a long-term cornerstone.
Yorke also expressed concerns about other players, including Marcus Rashford, who has seemingly fallen down the pecking order under Amorim. He pointed out that the team is lacking a central midfielder who can dictate play and help in difficult situations. According to Yorke, Manchester United currently has limited players who Amorim can build around, with Amad and Fernandes being the primary options.
In other news, Amorim recently discussed Alejandro Garnacho’s reaction after being omitted from the squad for Manchester United’s 2-1 win over Manchester City on December 15. Amorim revealed that Garnacho was upset by the decision but praised the player’s attitude, saying he was happy with Garnacho’s response. Amorim confirmed that Garnacho trained well and is ready for the upcoming Carabao Cup quarterfinal against Spurs, after contributing eight goals and four assists in 24 matches this season.
