Amorim Doesn’t Rate HALF The Squad | Deb...

Rio Ferdinand Presents
About this episode

Joel Beya and Ste Howson join Rio after a weekend where Manchester United suffered a record equalling NINTH home league defeat. The trio discuss reasons why Hojlund is getting frustrated with teammates not providing him with more chances and how manager Ruben Amorim’s quotes and interviews could translate into the player’s mentality.


After struggling to comprehend the vitriol faced by Trent Alexander-Arnold, Rio invites Liverpool supporter Shea onto the pod to try and see it from his perspective and Shea wastes no time in laying out his thoughts on the defender leaving for Real Madrid on a free. That debate prompts Rio to reflect on the way academy graduates are treated by clubs now and also when he was playing at Old Trafford.


Joel picks up on Jamie Carragher’s comments about Declan Rice and discusses how long players will continue to believe in manager Mikel Arteta if they consistently can’t get over the final hurdle to win a trophy.
