EPL: I don’t care about Arne Slot’s comments – Amorim

Manchester United manager, Ruben Amorim, has said he does not know what his Liverpool counterpart, Arne Slot, has to say about his team.

Slot spoke of Amorim employing low blocks and long balls at Anfield last weekend.

United beat Liverpool 2-1, with Harry Maguire heading in a late winner, after Cody Gakpo cancelled out Bryan Mbeumo’s early opener.

After the game, Slot said “it is always difficult to play against a team that defends in a low block and mainly plays the long ball.”

But speaking ahead of Saturday’s game against Brighton, Amorim said: “Liverpool is in the past, I don’t want to comment. That is not important.

“Important is what Fabian [Hürzeler] said to try to understand what is going to happen [against Brighton].

“I understand everything. I am really pleased that the team can play different games.

“It was an important win, but I was the first one to say that we need to play better with the ball. So, I don’t care what Slot is saying, what people are saying about our team.

“I can evaluate my team and I am really clear that we should play better with the ball. We are going to try to do that in this game.”
