This defeat caused Man United to drop to 15th place in the Premier League rankings. The team has won only 4/14 Premier League games since Amorim replaced Erik ten Hag.
Man United still have hope to win the FA Cup and Europa League, but with injuries to a series of key players and the continuous poor form that the team has shown, Ruben Amorim's task is very difficult.
What people see and discuss every week is also something I realized. I have many problems with the team, my job here is very difficult. But I still keep my faith, Amorim told Sky Sports after the match.
Amorim believes that Man United's form is affected by injuries to many first-team players. Tottenham took advantage of this to win their first home win in the Premier League after 8 matches.
Leny Yoro, Kobbie Mainoo, Christian Eriksen, Manuel Ugarte and Amad Diallo are among the injured players, not on the Tottenham squad. In particular, Amad is likely to be out for the rest of the season due to an ankle injury.
ottenham scored, but we didnt. That was the big difference in the game. Man United had many chances but in the end they scored, but we didn't.
We created many situations in the area close to the penalty area. In games where the two teams don't play well like this, a goal can make a difference, Amorim shared.
According to the Portuguese strategist, the fact that many players are injured has changed the way Man United approaches the game.
I cant play the same way as Joshua Zirkzee, as I usually do with Amad. I also want Bruno to touch the ball more while building the game, because he is good at transitioning the state. But at the same time, we also want him to put pressure on the opponent. That is really difficult, Amorim explained.
Although Man United are facing many difficulties in terms of force, Sky Sports analyst Gary Neville has analyzed that since Amorim's arrival, Man United has had little improvement in playing style and form.
"The club will have to be patient but I want to see Man United's performance increase, instead of playing at an average level from week to week. More worryingly, the players have failed to prove a truly effective new system in the 20 games Amorim has coached.
The best thing about Amorim's time at Man United has been his press conferences. Man United are playing quite weakly at the end of the day, Neville said.
