Man United legend picks Ruben Amorim’s replacement: would cause havoc | OneFootball

Roy Keane admitted that he wants Diego Simeone on the Manchester United bench. The former Red Devils midfielder, who stood out under Sir Alex Ferguson—winning the most important trophies in European football—spoke about Ruben Amorim’s situation on the ‘Stick to Football’ podcast.

“I’ve been saying it for years, I’d like the Atlético Madrid manager [Diego] Simeone to go there. I’d like to see him there. I know his mate [Andrea Berta] went to Arsenal,” Roy Keane began, who has been quite critical of Ruben Amorim in the past.

The former Manchester United midfielder explained what he sees in the Argentine coach: “I think he would simply cause havoc, but good havoc. He would tear it up there. No guarantees, but I’d like to see his personality, his track record. People should think about football styles—they scored five goals against Real Madrid last weekend [5-2]. He doesn’t like his teams conceding many goals or chances, but they can play a bit and fight.”

“In Liverpool, a few weeks ago, the team wasn’t as good as it was a few years back, but it still has fighting spirit [2-3]. He was sent off that night. I’d like a big personality,” Roy Keane continued, confident that Simeone could turn around the bad situation at Manchester United.

Roy Keane confesses, however, that he wouldn’t sack Ruben Amorim just yet, but also explained that the Portuguese coach, formerly of Benfica, doesn’t have much time to prove his worth: “I’d still say ‘give the man a chance’, absolutely. Another week.”
