Rúben Amorim warns 'Manchester United cannot play the way Sporting do'

Rúben Amorim said Sporting’s 4-1 rout of Manchester City was a dream way to sign off in his last home game as head coach but warned that when taking over Manchester United ­he cannot be as 'defensive' as the ­Portuguese champions.

'We cannot transport one reality to another,' he said. 'United cannot play the way we play, they cannot be so defensive. Of course it’s good to beat City. But I’ll be living in a different world, we’ll have to start from a different point'.

I like him already! Setting expectations right away and not getting carried away

Ten Hag said that United could not play the Ajax way.

Smart of him to rightly manage expectations!

This translation sucks! Not even an effort to translate what he's saying!

He seems to be giving the english the cold shoulder here. Speaking in portiguese about his team based in Portugal

Ha, he's not left Sporting yet, but he's already giving team talks for the United squad!
