Jose Mourinho Criticizes Erik Ten Hag’s Dismissal: Claims He “Sacked Himself” for Not Using Best Players; Praises Ruben Amorim for Giving Antony Another Chance
“Erik ten Hag sacked himself because he refused to use his best… I’m happy Ruben Amorim has decided to give him a chance again, it’s a significant step and I’m convinced he’s an inexperienced coach”: Jose Mourinho impressed by Ruben Amorim’s decision to bring forgotten Man United’s player back to squad again. THE SPECIAL ONE
Jose Mourinho has weighed in on the current situation surrounding Manchester United and Antony, claiming that Erik ten Hag’s dismissal was due to his failure to use the best players available.
In a recent interview, Mourinho stated: “Erik ten Hag sacked himself because he refused to use his best players.” His remarks came as part of a broader discussion about the difficulties faced by the team under Ten Hag’s management, with Mourinho hinting that the Dutchman’s reluctance to fully integrate key talents like Antony was a significant factor in his departure.
Mourinho expressed his satisfaction that Ruben Amorim, the newly appointed head coach, has decided to offer Antony another chance at United, calling it “a significant step.” However, Mourinho also added that he believes Amorim is still inexperienced and will have to prove himself in this new challenge. The Special One’s comments underline the high stakes facing the new manager, as he works to revitalize a squad that has underperformed under its previous leadership.
The focus now shifts to Antony’s future at the club, with the Brazilian determined to prove his worth despite the uncertainty surrounding his role. As Ruben Amorim looks to make his mark at Old Trafford, all eyes will be on whether he can get the best out of players like Antony who have faced difficulties under previous regimes.
