Lineker Jokes Mainoo Should Sue Amorim for Stalling His Career
Gary Lineker has jokingly suggested that Kobbie Mainoo should consider suing former Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim for hindering his development. Speaking on The Rest Is Football podcast, the former England striker made the tongue-in-cheek remark while praising the young แทงบอลสด midfielder’s obvious talent.
Mainoo, 20, struggled for opportunities under Amorim, particularly last season when he failed to make a single Premier League start. However, since Amorim’s dismissal and the appointment of Michael Carrick, the midfielder has immediately begun to shine and show his true potential on the pitch.
Lineker heaped praise on Mainoo’s elegant style of play, highlighting his bravery in receiving the ball in tight spaces, his sharp decision-making and the way he makes difficult things look effortless.
