Ruben Amorim spent the majority of Thursday's news conference batting away questions about Manchester United
Transcript
00:00I don't know if you want to talk about it or not.
00:02I know that you guys made a trip to come here to talk about it and it's natural but let's leave it for the end of the game.
00:12I'll talk about it at the end of the game.
00:16Now I want the team to focus on the game because it's the most important thing.
00:22I promise that at the end of the game I'll talk about it and I think everything will be clearer.
00:29What we're talking about now is more of a destabilization for the squad.
00:34Now I'll focus on the game and tomorrow I'll answer those questions.
00:44It's still the same idea.
00:47Sporting is a two-time champion.
00:49Everyone here is a two-time champion and that hasn't changed since three months ago.
00:53I'm going to go deeper and answer questions that I'll answer at the end of the game.
00:58Right now it's about taking another step so that goal can be achieved.
01:03Right now the focus is on Estrela Amelor.
01:13At the end of the game everything will be clearer.
01:16I already said it at the other conference.
01:19Right now the focus is on Estrela.
01:21I wouldn't do anything different because I didn't control the situation.
01:27So I couldn't have done anything different.
01:30In relation to going deeper on all those questions, we'll have time for that at the end of the game.
01:42Very good.
01:43Very good.
01:44Tomorrow it will also be clear.
01:46There's no war.
01:47Much less rotten peace.
01:49Because it's also not part of our squad.
01:51Neither mine nor the president's.
01:53So that will be clarified at the end of the game.
01:58Right now the focus is on the game.
02:00The preparation was normal.
02:02I felt the players were different in the press conference.
02:05I could have said no.
02:07The atmosphere was very good.
02:09No one was reading the news.
02:11No one was anxious.
02:12I know that my players are anxious.
02:14There was no revolt.
02:15Because I have a way with revolts.
02:17There were revolts when I got here and all the problems.
02:21They know me very well.
02:23I know my players.
02:24And I'm honest with you when I say,
02:26and I treat you as journalists who are,
02:29and I say that they were not normal.
02:31When I read the news, I realized that they were nervous, anxious.
02:35It will stay.
02:36We have a very complicated series of games.
02:38It won't stay.
02:39That's what I said.
02:40But there was clearly no revolt.
02:43I didn't even need Morten to hold his colleagues.
02:47Because I deal with my problems and they know me so well.
02:51And I think I already proved that I defend them until the last minute.
02:56But there are things that I don't control.
02:58The preparation was done in a way this time more normal than the last game.
03:03We prepared tactically, physically.
03:05We divided the group to be specific in that more physical recovery.
03:10And we saw the videos we had to see.
03:12And we are ready to win the next game.
03:14Yes.
03:33Good afternoon, Ruben.
03:35Since you were talking about science and full adoption,
03:37what is breaking hearts right now?
03:40Mainly mine too.
03:43But I'm the one with the fabric.
03:44So it's not comparable what happens to me or what happens to other people.
03:48Because I'm the fabric, my future.
03:50I know it's difficult for everyone.
03:52At the end of the game we will address that.
03:54It doesn't seem to me that President Federico Varandas
03:57has forced my immediate departure.
04:00And so...
04:03He's defending the club's rights.
04:05And so I don't get into that aspect.
04:07I would never do it.
04:08So things have to happen as they have to happen.
04:11At the end of the game I think you will be very clear.
04:14The fans may like it or not.
04:16But everything will be defined there.
04:20And you will see that there is no rotten peace.
04:22We are adults.
04:24And things sometimes happen.
04:26And so...
04:27Focus now on Estrela.
04:28We really want to win the game.
04:30We really need to win the game in this phase.
04:33And at the end of the game we will address that.
04:36Good afternoon.
04:37Ricardo Miguel Gonçalves, 00.
04:38After these last 72 hours,
04:40do you feel that your goal will be fulfilled?
04:42It will be fulfilled.
04:43Without a doubt.
04:45It will be fulfilled if I leave.
04:50What is really bothering you
04:52and making you uncomfortable in this situation?
04:55What could it be?
04:59The situation is very difficult.
05:01I don't say nervousness, but tiredness.
05:04Obviously, when I don't know what to say
05:06and what can be said at times
05:09it makes everything more difficult for me.
05:11Because I have to walk here.
05:12When I am very direct with people
05:14it is much easier for me.
05:15Be it good or bad.
05:16Uncertainty creates a lot of difficulty.
05:19And I have communication problems like any coach.
05:23But I would say more tiredness.
05:25What makes me more nervous in this situation.
05:29It is very clear.
05:30The whole situation itself.
05:32Everything around.
05:34It makes me very nervous.
05:36It is difficult to focus on the games.
05:38But I am managing to do it more.
05:41And it will be over.
05:43The soap opera, let's say.
05:45So, I think it is obvious what makes me more nervous.
05:49The fact of not knowing what to say
05:51or not being able to be so clear.
05:54That creates a lot of difficulty for me.
05:57So, I think that's it.
05:59Maestro.
06:01Renato, did you like what you saw?
06:03No, yesterday I saw Estrela.
06:05I saw Estrela for the first time in a while.
06:07I don't know the result.
06:09But I saw Estrela.
06:11I also went through City.
06:14Although there were some changes.
06:16And we can't make a big assessment
06:18for the next Champions League game.
06:21And yes, New Zealand is also around.
06:23And maybe if something happens
06:27the biggest fear is that.
06:29That something happens at the end of the year.
06:32And being able to be one of the reasons
06:34for something to happen.
06:36Maybe that is the biggest fear
06:38than failing in other situations.
06:40Last question from the English media.
