Paul Scholes has admitted he is 'really excited' about Ruben Amorim and believes the manager is a 'real coup' for Manchester United, despite initially urging his old club to hold off on appointing him.
The Red Devils legend, who was on punditry duty with TNT Sports during Manchester United's 2-0 win over PAOK at Old Trafford on Thursday, waxed lyrical about the incoming Portuguese boss, who is set to begin in his new role on Monday.
Amorim made the perfect statement to Red Devils fans by triumphing 4-1 over perennial Premier League champions Manchester City at the Jose Alvalade Stadium on Tuesday, outclassing Pep Guardiola thanks to a superb hat-trick from Sporting Lisbon's in-form striker Viktor Gyokeres.
