Portuguese manager Ruben Amorim continues to struggle in his role, with a 26% win rate, the third-lowest in Manchester United history for managers with more than 20 games in charge. Yet, he remains defiant, refusing to alter his philosophy despite mounting calls for tactical changes.
“I understand everything. It is normal. The result, I accept that. I don’t see it that way, we are doing better than the results,” Amorim said following the City defeat.
He added with visible passion: “My message to fans: I will do everything. Always thinking about what is best for the club. Until I’m here, I’ll do my best. The rest is not my decision. I’m suffering more [than the fans]. I accept, it is not a record you should have at Manchester United. There are a lot of things you have no idea what has happened. But I am not going to change my philosophy. I play my way and I am going to play my way.”
The next test comes at home against Chelsea, a match that could either provide a lifeline or deepen the crisis.
