Paulo Andrade on Ruben Amorim to Sporting rumour, rates Rui Borges | OneFootball

Paulo Andrade does not believe that Ruben Amorim will return to Portugal, at least not for now. In statements on CMTV, the commentator associated with Sporting dismissed this possibility and gave a positive assessment of Rui Borges' work with the green and whites, giving credit to Porto.

“I don't believe at all in Ruben Amorim's return, neither to Sporting nor to Benfica,” Paulo Andrade began by stating, not giving much credibility to the news coming from England, which linked the former lions' coach to the eternal rival, Benfica.

“In the last game Sporting could have easily beaten Vitória de Guimarães, they have a number of chances they miss and are playing with a patched-up team, missing about 10 key players, with two key players getting injured during the game,” Paulo Andrade recalled.

“What I see in the first half of the Championship is that Sporting has one more point than they had last year, when they were champions, they have only one less goal scored than last year. They still have by far the best attack in the competition, much better than Benfica's by miles and much better than Porto's,” added the manager.

“Sporting conceded nine goals this season with those four defenders that are always criticized. Last year, with three, they conceded 14 in the same period. The situation with Porto is completely different. Porto has, since 97/98, the best percentage of points obtained in the League,” Paulo Andrade concluded.
