Overview
- Gary Neville said on the Stick to Football podcast that benching Kobbie Mainoo was Ruben Amorim’s 'worst decision' and claimed it 'killed' the player publicly.
- Manchester United dismissed Amorim last month after roughly 14 months in charge and appointed Michael Carrick as interim manager until season’s end.
- Carrick’s United are unbeaten in five league games with four wins and one draw, lifting the club into the Premier League’s top four.
- Kobbie Mainoo has started all five matches under Carrick after not starting a single Premier League game this season under Amorim.
- England manager Thomas Tuchel said Mainoo is 'back in the picture' for national selection following his recent run of performances.
