“Where are your ambitions?” Scholes asked his former club. “I’m talking about bringing a team to win the Premier League. Are you going to win the Premier League with De Ligt and (Leny) Yoro when your center does not decrease?
Although the victory of the English title could be far away for Amorim’s side, struck by Amorim, the Portuguese manager was optimistic about his employment safety following the defeat against Tottenham.
