Manchester United are in relegation battle - Ruben Amorim

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has confirmed that his club are in a relegation battle after the club lost another Premier League game to their worst run, leading to the end of the calendar year.

Manchester United lost their last home game of the year when they hosted Newcastle United at Old Trafford on Monday, December 30, 2024. According to Ruben Amorim, during his post-match, press confirms confirmed that the club is in bad form, which is also similar to the relegation battle.

He said,

"That is really clear [United are being dragged into a relegation battle] so we have to fight. It is a really difficult moment, one of the more difficult moments in the history of Manchester United and we have to address it with honesty."

Ruben Amorim also took responsibility for the club's poor form, saying he has not been able to improve them since he joined from Sporting Lisbon.

"It is also my fault. The team is not improving. It is a little bit lost in this moment and it is a bit embarrassing to be Manchester United coach and lose a lot of games. I think people are tired of excuses at this club. This club needs a shock. When you have these kind of moments, especially in the big clubs, it's really hard to turn things around, especially when you don't have a lot of time to train the basics, to cope with the difficult moments. So we have to acknowledge our position, the way you see the league, everybody can beat everybody."

Manchester United supporters will be hoping that the new year brings victory ther way when they face Liverpool on Sunday, January 4, 2025 after which they will face Arsenal in the third round of the FA Cup.
