Harry Maguire has praised former Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim, saying that the Portuguese boss had some “great ideas” and deserves “credit” for the club’s direction since then.
Amorim was sacked by United in early January before Darren Fletcher and then Michael Carrick took charge in interim roles with Carrick overseeing a stark upturn in form as the side make a charge for a Champions League spot this season.
And the defender is full of praise for the work done by Carrick so far, including the “smooth” transition to a back four from a three that had not worked effectively under Amorim.
“I don’t really have much bad to say about Ruben,” Maguire said ahead of Friday’s friendly against Uruguay. “I really like Ruben, I think he’s got great ideas. The ideas just didn’t work at Manchester United.
“I do believe he’ll go on and have an amazing career and his next club he’ll probably go and win many, many football matches.
