It hasn’t been the best of times for Manchester United as they suffered another defeat in the ongoing Premier League. If positive results against Liverpool and Arsenal provided them hope, they were jolted to a rude awakening against Brighton. A 3-1 pounding courtesy of goals from Yankuba Minteh, Kaoru Mitoma and Georginio Rutter extracted very strong words from Ruben Amorim.

Talking in the post-match presser, the Portuguese manager inflicted a damning label on the current squad. Not only did he dish out a hard-hitting assessment of the team but he also underlined the woes of the fans. He also explained that his introduction came with hopes but consecutive defeats sparked fears of survival from Ruben Amorim.

Imagine what this is (like) for a fan of Manchester United. Imagine what this is (like) for me. We are getting a new coach that is losing more than the last coach. I have full knowledge of that. I know we can succeed, but we need to survive this moment. We are being the worst team, maybe, in the history of Manchester United. I know that you want headlines, but I’m saying that because we have to acknowledge that and to change that. Here you go, your headlines.

Ruben Amorim said at the post-match presser

Ever since Ruben Amorim took over the club, Manchester United has amassed only 11 league points. The numbers predict a pretty gloomy future that might contest their worst finish in the Premier League. Fears of relegation also loom large with United sitting on 26 points from 22 games which places them in the 13th position.
