Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim accepted club co-owner Jim Ratcliffe's criticism of his squad but said on Wednesday that they are focused on changing his mind after the billionaire said some players were either not good enough or overpaid.

Ruben Amorim says the onus is on him and Manchester United’s “underperforming” players to change critical co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s mind, starting with keeping their season alive by sealing Europa League progress.

Ruben Amorim has said it is up to the players called “overpaid” and “not good enough” by Sir Jim Ratcliffe to prove the Manchester United co-owner wrong. The United head coach implied those singled out by Ratcliffe could have few complaints, and named Casemiro as one player who can perform “so much better”.
