WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT KOBBIE

Boss Amorim refuses to budge as he continues to freeze out Mainoo

- BY ANDY DUNN

CONSIDERING he has won only eight of his 20 Premier League fixtures at Old Trafford, Manchester United fans have cut Ruben Amorim a lot of slack.

And the home jeers at the end of Thursday's draw against struggling West Ham were strictly halfhearted.

But if there is one issue that threatens to undermine the support given to the underperforming United manager, it is his treatment of Kobbie Mainoo, once of England, once the best player in an FA Cup final, once a starter in the final of a European Championship.

And still only 20 years of age.
