Amorim criticizes Man United for lacking determination in defeat to Wolves

NGUYỄN ĐĂNG |

Man United head coach Ruben Amorim called for more intensity from his team following their 2-0 loss to Wolves on Boxing Day.

This result marked Man United's third consecutive defeat in all competitions. In general, the Red Devils have only won 2/8 Premier League matches under Ruben Amorim.

Man United were down a man when captain Bruno Fernandes received a red card early in the second half. They then conceded a goal from a corner kick by Matheus Cunha. In the 90+9 minute, Hwang Hee-chan sealed the victory for the home team.

“We lacked intensity in games. We couldn’t control the game like some other games, including set pieces. Playing with a man down really made it difficult for Man United.

I told everyone, it's a difficult time for Man United and it's going to take a long time to get results. It takes time. The players need time to train. They're changing completely. The way they play is really difficult for them and the assistants are having a hard time getting all the information to them," Amorim said after the match.

When asked how long it would take for his ideas to be implemented at United, Amorim was honest: "I don't know. Instead of thinking about how much time it will take, I just try to work day by day, improve everything, try to watch videos, use every minute of training and try to get points, because that's really important for the team at the moment."

Overall, Man United are still facing many challenges under Amorim. Since replacing Erik ten Hag, the Portuguese strategist has only helped the team to 4 victories in all competitions.

According to ESPN Global Research, this is the first time Man United have lost three consecutive matches in all competitions since September 2023.

Man United have lost four of their last five Premier League games, as many as they lost in their previous 15 in the competition.

Only Everton and Southampton have failed to score in more games this season than Man United's seven.

Ruben Amorim is the first Man United manager to lose five of his first 10 games in charge of the club in all competitions since Walter Crickmer in 1932.

Bruno Fernandes is the first Man United player to be sent off three times in a season in all competitions since Nemanja Vidic in 2008-09.
