Ruben Amorim has candidly discussed his no-nonsense rapport with Manchester United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe.
Amorim disclosed that he frequently communicates with Ratcliffe, exchanging calls, messages, and even humorous GIFs.
"We speak on the phone, he sends me messages, he sends me GIFs," Amorim shared. "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."
Amorim emphasised his understanding of the professional boundaries yet maintains his frank approach. "I know that he's the owner of the club, I know my place. But when I need to say something, I will say it naturally, with no bull****. I can say that - with no bull****. I'm not around the subject, I'm really direct and I think it's something that he likes a lot."
