Garnacho shared a defiant message on Instagram following weeks of criticism.

"I will keep doing my things," Ganarcho wrote on Instagram.

The 20-year-old has played in both games under Amorim and has performed when needed. Erik ten Hag and Ruud van Nistelrooy trusted him, meaning he is a key member of the squad.

Under Amorim, he will have to solidify his spot amid the competition with Marcus Rashford and Antony.

Why Garnacho refused to celebrate goal

Briefly News earlier reported that Garnacho refused to celebrate his stunning goal against Leicester City on November 10.

After scoring, the winger made a muted celebration, prompting his captain, Bruno Fernandes, to ask him to celebrate.

Fernandes later explained that he refused to celebrate because he had lost support from some fans.
