MANCHESTER UNITED star Harry Amass shared a photo of himself with an award hours after Ruben Amorim’s jibe.
The defender is on loan at Sheffield Wednesday this season.
And he has been performing well for the Championship side despite Amorim’s claims otherwise.
Amass, 18, was named Wednesday’s play of the month for November and posed with his award in an Instagram post he swiftly deleted.
He won the award with 82 per cent of the public vote after scoring his first professional goal at Southampton.
Amass looked delighted with his win, which came hours after Amorim made disparaging comments about the left-back.

“He went to West Bromwich. He’s not playing. He played for Manchester United. So sometimes it’s not because he’s from the academy or whatever.
“It’s the situation, what’s happened. I don’t know what is going to be the future (for Mainoo). Let’s see after this match.
“All these guys played when a lot of people were saying sack the manager!”
It is believed that Amass’s “struggles” were more of a reference to Wednesday’s status as the Championship’s bottom club after two points deductions.
