At Manchester United deteriorates

As his record at Manchester United deteriorates, Ruben Amorim claims that pressure will not alter him.

Following Manchester United’s 1-3 loss to Brighton, coach Ruben Amorim is under growing pressure.

The strain on Manchester United coach Ruben Amorim is growing. On Sunday, January 19, 2025, the Red Devils lost to Brighton & Hove Albion 1-3 at Old Trafford in the Premier League.

Since taking Erik ten Hag’s position at the end of October, Amorim has suffered four home losses. Brighton seemed to be in control of the game the entire time. While Manchester United failed to record a single open-play goal.

Amorim has participated in 15 games in a variety of categories since joining Manchester United on November 11, 2024. He is only lost seven times and won six.

Amorim admitted to being under a lot of pressure. “Compared to the prior manager, our new manager has suffered higher losses. I know that very well. Whatever happens, I will not change,” he declared.

With 26 points from 22 games.

Manchester United is currently mired in 13th position in the standings. During a press conference held after the game, Amorim stated, “We are perhaps the worst team in the history of Manchester United,” as reported by ESPN.

“I say that because we must acknowledge this reality in order to be able to alter it, even if I know you want headlines.”

Nevertheless, Amorim is still optimistic about his team’s capacity to recover. “We need to survive right now, but I know we can succeed. We need to survive right now, and I am not naive,” he remarked.

The 20-time English champions, Manchester United, are presently perilously near the relegation zone. In the basement zone, they are just ten points behind Ipswich.

United has dropped six of their first 12 home league games since they were last demoted from the top division in 1974. Their worst record since 1893–1894 is this one.

The only solace for United supporters is that Alex Ferguson, who went on to become the team’s best manager with 13 Premier League titles, was in charge when they last lost 10 of their first 22 games.
