“He was the only player who impressed me yesterday”: Ruben Amorim names ONE Man United’s player who did well against Ipswich Town

The debut game for Manchester United under Ruben Amorim did not showcase the team’s new appearance. These things require time.

Ruben Amorim now has real data and film to work with after speculating on how the Manchester United players might fit his system while watching from a distance.

Ruben Amorim had some conclusions even after watching Manchester United’s 1-1 draw with Ipswich Town for the first time.

Among them was his admiration for Andre Onana’s death. After witnessing Alejandro Garnacho launch an attack, another arrived.

Regarding Alejandro Garnacho, Ruben Amorim

Alejandro Garnacho twice went past the Ipswich defense, but he was unable to break away from the last defender in time to attempt a shot.

However, as he clarified following the match, Garnacho’s skill with the ball during the build-up was what truly pleased the new head coach.

“You start learning things that you didn’t know like Garna [Alejandro Garnacho], can hold the ball between lines,” Amorim stated in an interview with Sky Sports.

He clarified that Garnacho’s ability to escape in the first place is due to his deft mobility.

“You try to find these things because he’s always open, so you can understand that by seeing the games,” Amorim continued.

The learning curve for Amorim

As much as the Manchester United players are becoming used to Ruben Amorim’s ways, he is also getting used to them.

Knowing their advantages and disadvantages will help him decide which roles to choose for them and set his own expectations for them.

Amorim’s tutoring will help Garnacho as a player. Despite just being 20 years old, he is gifted and unpolished.

Garnacho will have plenty of opportunities to demonstrate his abilities due to the hectic schedule of games over the coming month. He can’t take anything for granted, but it’s a plus that he started Amorim’s first game.
