Ruben Amorim has played the goalkeeper between the goalkeeper of Manchester United, Andre Onana, and former Matic Nemanja Nemanja, after he called the Cameroon International “one of the worst goalkeepers in Manchester United’s history.”
The row erupted ahead of the first party in the first part of the Europa League European League between United and Lyon after the statements that Onana made that suggested that her side was “much better” than her League 1 adversaries.
He promoted Lyon Midfielder Matic, who played the Red Devils between 2017 and 2022, to hit the 29-year-old, who in turn responded to X with a excavation in the Serbian trophy time at Old Trafford.
Would never be disrespectful of another club. We know that tomorrow will be a difficult game against a strong opponent.
We focus on preparing a performance to make our fans proud.

But on the eve of the party, Amorim, who confirmed that Onana would start on the goal, refused to be attracted to the exchange of embedded, insisting that she was derived from a misunderstanding.
“If you see Andre Onana’s complete quote, it is very different,” said the United States Chief.
“The first sentence is that” Lyon is a very, very good team. “Sometimes players do not listen to complete appointments and it’s just a misunderstanding. I know (nemanja) montic, it’s also a great guy, so tomorrow it will be a normal game.
“Again, if you look at all the appointments, you will not be able to see the contempt, only respect. But to show confidence in your team.
“Everyone talks about bad things about Manchester United this year. Someone has to show some confidence in our team. I know that Nemanja matic is very good and how good it is a guy who is. I think he has heard things in half.”
United’s trip to France will also see Kobbie Minoo’s return to the squad after a two -month absence with a muscle injury.
And while Amorim emphasized the quality of the young midfielder, he admitted that there was still room to improve.
Amorim said, “When I see Kobbie, I see a lot of talented. But in the way I see it, I could go wrong.
“I see some things that Kobbie has to improve: his pace in the game. He has to improve in the accumulation. Near the box, he has a lot of talent and that is why I think he made a really good game in Europe League in this position. But I don’t see a complete player at the moment; if I say I have seen the final player, I don’t think he helps Kobbie.”
Amorim added: “It is really important in all aspects. The first is to win a title, a European title. It will be good for our confidence. Then playing the Champions League in our club is completely different; the environment, the way we will face in the summer, the budget for the summer, everything is related to this competition.
“We know this pressure, but again, this is not the biggest problem in United. We have other strengths to achieve it in the right way without the Champions League next year.”
