Aside from all the tactical stuff, and I'm sure we'll get onto all that stuff, but aside from that, that is the biggest thing that he's done and he deserves a lot of credit for that.
There was one thing that I thought was really, really interesting that...
when the goal goes in to make it 2-2 usually we would have seen if that would have been Amrim the entire team would have sat back and taken what they had and I've got a lot of sympathy for Ruben Amrim I've said on this podcast a lot of times but
I think the suggestion was within United was that he came to fade the Premier League, not just the big teams, but also the smaller teams.
Fade what other teams could do to you, not what you could do to them.
And it was really interesting after it went to 2-2.
Arsenal got the ball back.
I think there was a goal kick.
David Raya had a goal kick.
Bruno Fernandes goes straight up onto the edge of the box to press really, really high.
Now, at the time, I thought, watching it, thinking, they might get done here.
This ball's going to go over the top.
Bruno's going to be miles out of position and they're going to concede again.
And in fairness, they win the ball back really quickly, really high up.
It goes to Cunha and they score to win 3-2.
That just would never have happened under Ruben Amrim.
And I think that kind of...
that belief and that confidence instills itself in the players.
And if the players feel that from a manager, because you've got a choice, haven't you, at 2-2.
The manager gets on the touchline and he either goes, don't do anything stupid.
