AMORIM EXPECTS MORE PAIN WITH MANCHESTER UNITED – Ruben Amorim refused to change course from his tactical plan
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim refused to change course from his tactical plan despite a 10th defeat of the season at home to Brighton & Hove Albion on Sunday (January 19) that leaves the club in danger of a record low Premier League finish.
Brighton cruised to a 3-1 win and United have now managed 11 points from a possible 33 since Amorim joined from Sporting in November, while they had not lost 10 of their first 22 games of the league season since the 1989-90 campaign.
They are worrying numbers for United fans with the side languishing in 13th place, as close to the relegation zone as the top eight with 26 points from 22 games. Their worst finish in the Premier League era was last season when they ended in eighth.
Amorim suggested there will be more pain on the way for the team before the end of the season, as they prepare to host Rangers in the Europa League on Thursday (January 23) before a trip to Fulham for their next Premier League fixture on Sunday (January 26).
