Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has admitted that he could leave United as their results continues. The manager made this comment after they lost 2-0 at home to West Ham United. They have however booked their place in the Europa League final but their form in the local league is worst in their history.
The 2-0 loss sees Amorim’s men slip to a lowly 16th in the Premier League table with Man United losing 17 of their 36 league outings this term. Manchester United are safe from relegation but their perfomance this season is very poor. It replicates that of the 1973/74 season when Man United were last relegated from the top flight with their 17th defeat the most league defeats they’ve suffered in a single campaign since they last went down.
The former Sporting CP manager said their Europa League final date with Tottenham merely papers over the cracks on the bigger problems at the club.
Ruben Amorim Says He might Leave if Poor form Continues at United
According to him, he said: “Everybody here has to think seriously about a lot of things.” “Everybody is thinking about the [Europa League] final. The final is not the issue. We have bigger things to think about.” “I’m talking about myself and the culture in the club and the culture in the team. We need to change that.”
“It’s a decisive moment in the history of the club.” “We need to be really strong in the summer and to be brave because we will not have a next season like this.” “If we start like this, if the feeling is still here, we should give the space to different people.”
“To be honest with you, I’m not concerned about the final,” he said. “It’s by far the smallest problem in our club. We need to change something that is deeper than this.” “We are showing that in the end of this season that playing Premier League and Champions League for us is the moon, so we need to know that.”
“I’m not concerned about the final. They (the players) will be focused and I don’t know what is best, if it’s playing Champions League or not. So, let’s think about Chelsea to improve a lot of things.”
