However, Amorim&#8217;s reaction in the run-up to the Bournemouth game was cruel and has divided opinion ever since.<\/p>\n<p>he said: <em>\u201cThe door is open for any player to change my mind, just like any other player, but at the end of the day it&#8217;s training and games&#8230;Of course he hasn&#8217;t played that many games, but Coby had his chances, especially last year.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cEveryone was like that&#8230; (Harry) Amass is struggling at the moment in the Championship (Sheffield on Wednesday).<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Chido (Obi) hasn&#8217;t always been a starter for the Under-21s.

I just look at the team, try to win the next game and try to think about the team. I&#8217;ll do that until the end.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>    According to recent reports, Mainu is one of the players who is likely to be on loan for at least the rest of the season, heading for his exit in January, amid interest from the likes of Bayern Munich.<\/p>\n<p>But the young midfielder&#8217;s biggest concern is that Amorim reportedly admires Chris Inao-Ulai.
