Looooool “Maxi, question. With so many players suspended, how do you always manage to stay on the field while you’re an aggressive f*ck”

To clarify my earlier tweet on Bruno: This is not me saying he’s the problem or a bad player. Bruno is a magnificent footballer. But with Bruno, you don’t just add a player, you add a style. He naturally becomes the rhythm-setter. Everything flows through him. That can be a strength, but also a constraint. Take PSG’s goal the other night. Vitinha dictated tempo from deep like a true architect, setting the structure and tone of the whole move. Now ask yourself: if Bruno were in that midfield, in Ruiz’s role… would he let Vitinha run the move? Or would he demand the ball, set his own tempo, maybe hit a hopeful long ball? This isn’t a flaw, it’s who he is. It’s been the case at Sporting, United, and with Portugal. High output, but high gravitational pull. He’s not the issue or the “problem”. But teams do morph around him. That’s the tradeoff. And you need to ask yourself if that’s the tradeoff you want to make. Players like Vitinha would never thrive at United with Bruno in the team. Hopefully he stays to lift a Premier League title, but United will be fine if he leaves as well.

Narratives on X are dangerous. One person claims Amorim would have benched Scholes, Xavi, or Pirlo, and suddenly you have a snowball effect, kids who never watched them play parroting the same take. Paul Scholes would absolutely walk into this team. It’s all about finding the right balance in midfield. If Ruben had Scholes and Carrick available, that would be the best pivot United could field right now. And I have no doubt they’d show more fight than what we’re seeing from the current squad, exactly the kind of mentality Amorim demands.
