MANCHESTER (ENGLAND) (ITALPRESS) – “The criticism? It’s normal. You can’t run away from results. Then there’s also the legacy of last season, even if that season doesn’t matter to me.” Ruben Amorim is aware of the pressure on his bench. Although Jim Ratcliffe lets his support slip, the Manchester United manager’s position is far from solid, especially with the international break approaching.
Having arrived a year ago after the season had already started, Amorim failed to finish better than 15th place, then losing to Tottenham in the final round of last season’s Europa League. In total, with the Portuguese manager on the dugout, United have won only 18 of 49 matches, nine of 33 in the Premier League alone, where Amorim has never managed back wins. And this season, in the first six matchdays, they’ve already suffered three defeats. “It’s not the time to talk, it’s the time to prove it. I watch this season’s games and, for me, they’re completely different, but at the moment I have nothing to say,” he added, comparing the Red Devils’ current performance with that of last season.
