Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has expressed skepticism regarding the potential appointment of Ruben Amorim as the club’s new manager, comparing the current excitement to the initial hype surrounding Erik ten Hag’s arrival. Following Ten Hag’s sacking on Monday, Amorim has emerged as a leading candidate for the role.
In his remarks on The Overlap Fan Debate, Scholes emphasized that United should have pursued Thomas Tuchel for the managerial position. He stated, “I think Thomas Tuchel was the right one to coach Manchester United, but obviously he’s gone now with England. He’s someone that can manage an elite football club and win big games. He’s been there and done it.”
Regarding Amorim, Scholes acknowledged the buzz surrounding him but noted, “On Ruben Amorim – [the hype] feels a bit like Erik ten Hag [joined Manchester United]. He’s coming from the Portuguese league, which is a bit better than the Dutch league. What he’s done there has been good – he looks charismatic, and he has a bit about him.”
