The Portuguese head coach became the 1st Manchester United manager since Louis van Gaal to defeat Liverpool at Anfield and was swift to react to his opponent’s comments.
Before the Red Devils’ next game in the EPL vs. Brighton, Ruben wants to keep the good momentum and build on that.
Slot criticized Amorim about the way the Red Devils defended deep, hit Liverpool on the break, and knocked balls long into the box or into channels.
