You deserve it – Amad Diallo’s beautiful girlfriend sends him 'sweet' message after Manchester Derby masterclass
Amad received love from his beautiful fiancee after landing the final blow to City in the Manchester Derby.
Amad turns up late
In what was largely a tepid affair, Josko Gvardiol’s first-half header was almost the only goal in the contest, as Manchester City came close to securing an important victory.
In the last ten minutes, however, the Ivory Coast international won a penalty which was effortlessly dispatched by Bruno Fernandes, before rounding Ederson to score a well taken winner.
The performance was the continuation of a great run of form under Amorim, who has found Amad incredibly useful, deploying him in multiple positions.
What Amorim said
Following the match, Amorim was asked about Amad’s inspired form under his tutelage, and he explained that he only picked up from the development that was already underway under former permanent coach Ten Hag, and interim boss Van Nistelrooy.
“Erik [Ten Hag] and Ruud [Van Nistelrooy] did a great job with him, we continue that,” Amorim said about Amad. “Really important. All the players fit in my system. If they want to be in it, if they are talented, every player can fit in this system."
