'It also depends' - Nani fires warning at Man United players after Ruben Amorim appointment

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Former Manchester United winger Nani is confident the club will reap the rewards of appointing Ruben Amorim as head coach - but has warned that the players must respond to his demands to make it a success.

Amorim was appointed as Erik ten Hag's successor at the start of November and oversaw a 1-1 draw with Ipswich Town in his first game in charge last Sunday afternoon.

Despite failing to secure a debut win in the dugout, evidence of what Amorim is going to attempt to try and change at Old Trafford was on show, with the Portuguese chief wasting no time in implementing his trademark 3-4-3 formation.

And that is a view shared by Nani, who also joined United from Sporting Lisbon, making the switch back in 2007. "It's always difficult to say who the right man is, but I really believe he will do a good job," Nani told A Bola. "But it doesn't just depend on him and what he will bring to the club. "It also depends on whether the people who will work with him will be prepared for the demands, to return to being winners.
