“We Might Not Resell Him in January” – Ruben Amorim Finally Names the One Manchester United Player Who Shocked Him Against Liverpool
After Manchester United’s dramatic 2-1 win over Liverpool, manager Ruben Amorim has made a striking admission that’s now making waves among fans and pundits alike.
In a post-match interview, Amorim broke his silence on a player whose performances had previously left much to be desired. With pressure mounting over some of United’s underperforming signings, the Portuguese boss didn’t hold back in expressing his surprise and relief.
“For the first time since we bought him, this is the first game that he really impressed me. If he continues like this, we might end up not reselling him by January,” Amorim stated candidly.
This unexpected praise hints at a turning point in the player’s career at Old Trafford. While Amorim didn’t name the January transfer window target outright in the interview, sources close to the club strongly suggest the player in question had been on the chopping block after failing to meet expectations since his arrival.
Insiders revealed that Amorim had been seriously considering offloading the player during the upcoming winter transfer window. But after today’s performance, that stance may have shifted.
The player in question reportedly delivered his best performance in a United shirt — showing renewed energy, sharper decision-making, and a tactical awareness that had been missing in previous outings. His pressing intensity, defensive work rate, and overall contribution drew applause not just from the coaching staff, but from the fans at Old Trafford — a rare feat for him since joining the club.
Supporters took to social media to voice their surprise and satisfaction. One tweet read, “If this version of him had shown up earlier in the season, we’d be challenging for top four already.” Another fan posted, “Now this is the player we thought we were getting.”
According to reports, Amorim had been pushing him hard in training sessions in recent weeks, demanding more physical presence, quicker reactions, and more consistency. This performance suggests that the hard work might finally be paying off.
The manager’s statement has now sparked fresh debate about the player’s future. Will this be the beginning of his redemption arc at Manchester United? Or is it too little, too late?
One thing is certain: for the first time in a long time, the player has given fans — and his manager — something to believe in.
