ALT Amorim had been opposed since talks first opened, but had kept an open mind as dialogue went on. Any television show would have needed buy-in from the players, as Amazon would have gained near unlimited access, and this was never likely to be realistic without Amorim convincing them of its merits. Amorim has also experienced issues with some prominent squad members, notably Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho — both of whom are for sale - and had grave concerns that exposure brought by an Amazon series would have seriously embarrassed the club. One ongoing issue is with Harry Maguire, who rather than eating food provided by the club canteen, insists on bringing his own bread and eggs to training every day where he makes himself boiled egg and 'soldiers', which Maguire refers to as 'my dippy eggs'. Amorim has been unable to persuade the England centre-back to adapt, and expressed concern that any exposure of such issues would embarrass both him and the club.
