RATCLIFFE AND RUBEN IN SYNC WITH NO BULL

STRAIGHT TALKERS: Amorim with Sir Jim Ratcliffe

- from DAVID MCDONNELL in Atlanta

RUBEN AMORIM has opened up on his “no bull****” relationship with Manchester United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe.

Amorim revealed he talks and messages Ratcliffe on a regular basis and the pair get on because they share the same straight-talking approach.

“We speak on the phone, he sends me messages, he sends me GIFs,” said Amorim.

“You call it GIFs? Like joking. So we have this kind of relationship.

“I think it's really easy to deal with Jim. Easy in the sense that if you know your stuff, if you know how to explain any decision, you'll be fine with him.

“If you try to use some bull**** in big words with him, he's going to knock you. So for me, it's really easy. I will say whatever I need to say with, of course, a lot of respect, like with everybody.
