Rúben Amorim grateful as ex-Benfica star replies to football legend | OneFootball

Rúben Amorim did not remain indifferent to Cristiano Ronaldo's interview and responded to the Portuguese star. Recently, the Manchester United coach was asked about the statements of the national team captain and agreed that he was right. According to the former Benfica player, the Red Devils made some mistakes in the past.

When questioned by journalists about Cristiano Ronaldo's words, Rúben Amorim emphasized that the focus should be on what is to come, not on being stuck in the past: "We have to focus on the future. We know that, as a club, we made many mistakes in the past and we are trying to change that. We will not concentrate on what happened".

"We will focus on what we are doing now. We are changing many things in the structure, in the way we work, and in the behavior we demand from the players. We are improving, so we will continue and forget the past", added the former player of the Clube da Luz.

However, the Red Devils' coach considers that his main concern lies in defensive routines: "It is a problem, especially in current football. The teams that win many games are those that do not concede goals or allow few shots on target".

"This is fundamental, especially when you have talented players up front. With one opportunity, you can score a goal and win the game. But I think it is a collective issue, we need to defend better as a team, to be more aggressive", concluded the coach of the Old Trafford emblem.
