Leny Yoro has revealed how Ruben Amorim takes no prisoners in training sessions as Manchester United boss.
Yoro admits some of the sessions can be brutal - and that Amorim loses the plot when players drop their standards. Amorim wasted no time in axing Marcus Rashford due to his poor attitude in training, in the weeks before his loan move to Aston Villa.
And Yoro, appearing on the Rio Ferdinand Presents podcast, presented by Qatar Airways, admits the Portuguese coach won't tolerate any nonsense from his United stars.
Yoro said: "I had a good relationship with Erik Ten Hag, and I have a good relationship with Ruben Amorim. So for me, it's good. I just try to do what he asks me to do.
"He's big on communication with the players, because he played at a top level. He’s been at a lot of clubs, so he knows your feelings when you're not playing or when you have a bad game. He knows how to speak with you, and that’s really important for me.
"In training, it's really, I would say, hard. But it's important. We have a lot of training, and for him, training is really important too, because you play the game like you train.
"The most important thing is to be really good in training. If you are not working, if you are lazy in training, he won't like you—he'll kill you! It's normal because, yeah, you play like you train.
"He’s really strict on this because, to win games and trophies, you need to be disciplined outside the pitch. You need to be punctual."
