The worst Manchester United in 50 years! Amorim admitted that he might also be out of class, and called on the whole team to learn from everyone and not complain

Although he has only been at Manchester United for two months, the 39-year-old Ruben Amorim has already mentioned "stepping down". The Red Devils are currently 14th in the table, only eight points clear of the relegation zone, and have been rated by the British media as "worst Manchester United team in 50 years" and "worst Man Utd in half a century". When losing to Wolves, the new coach admitted that the goal at hand was really to win first to determine relegation. Amorim, who is on contract until 2027, says he is well aware of the pressures of managing the team, but he enjoys the challenge of being a big manager.

'No matter what, the manager of Manchester United can never feel comfortable, I know my industry. Speaking at his pre-match press conference with Newcastle United, Amorim said: "I know that if Manchester United can't win, every manager is in danger, no matter how much the club pays me to release my contract. I like it and I accept it because that's what I do. You can explain that I've been coaching here for a month and I've only had four training sessions and we haven't won, that's the reality and I can only accept it."

Manchester United have conceded from set-pieces this season and have even been directly conceded from corners twice in their last three games. While there were doubts about the controversial move of the referee not blowing the goalkeeper for interference, Amorim reminded his players: You should emulate your opponents, not complain.

'Manchester United must not cry over this, we can focus on learning from the opposition and scoring goals in the same way. That's my goal, and we should learn from it and use it for ourselves. Set-pieces have become so important that we have to learn, even against small opponents." 'We have to fight against everything, the fans have been on the sidelines, but they're tired of the situation. We have to be mentally prepared for any attack from Newcastle near the box that will make the whole pitch tense and the players have to face that challenge. We want to go toe-to-toe and try to win the game."

In this regard, Amorim has singled out Manchester United's 31-year-old England centre-back Harry Maguire for the fact that the player who has been questioned never makes excuses.

'Harry [Maguire] did a good job, he focused on training and playing instead of what people were saying. He didn't make excuses, even though he had been through a lot of tough moments." Amaury explained, "I think he's a role model in that regard. He's playing with all his might on the pitch and helping the team and he's trying to do that."

Amorim admits he would have preferred to be in charge of United from the start of the season. "There's no point in talking about or thinking about that now." 'I have to focus on my work here, it's part of football and I knew it was going to be tough with these difficult moments,' he said. Of course, you want to win more games and give the players more confidence to implement my philosophy and improve a lot of things. At this moment, the situation is really difficult. Like I said, we have to survive to have time and then we can improve the team."

Next opponents, Newcastle, have recently won four in a row and are on a strong streak, while United will also lose suspended Bruno Fernandes and Ugarte. Amorim said: 'Newcastle are a very strong team, very fast, playing under the same coach a lot of time. We want to stay competitive and try to win the game, that's the way it is."

Manchester United have suffered two consecutive Premier League defeats at Old Trafford and four home defeats this season, and the former impenetrable fortress of their opponents is now as porous as their own ceiling, with many fans booing the home side.

Regarding the words and actions of Manchester United fans, Amorim said he was okay with it and he had no requirements for his supporters. "I can't ask anything from the fans, they gave us everything, the home was full and we continued to applaud after the loss. So I think you can only give back to the fans, not ask them for anything."
