Manchester United’s current coach, Ruben Amorim, appears to have reached a point where he’s not sure what he will get from his team in every match.
From drawing with Liverpool to beating Arsenal in the FA Cup, United went on to escape defeat against Southampton at home and also lost embarrassingly to Brighton in the game after.
Despite winning against the Rangers in the Europa League, it was clear that United had to grind a result, as it seems the Rangers have found their way back, thanks to Fernandes.
This must have left United coach Ruben Amorim feeling angry and devastated as they nearly lost, and also, it is no different as the fight and passion seem to be diminishing.
Different messages in media to reality
This seems to be the same situation Ten Hag found himself in when his players appeared to have lost faith in his management.
He would show up at the press conference with awkward statements that many wondered where he saw, like praising his team for playing when clearly, they had a bad game.
Despite knowing that his team did not perform well, Ten Hag felt obliged to protect his players and send the right message through the media, something that made him look delusional, even to fans.
Amorim appears to have picked up where Ten Hag left off and now has lost more games in the Premier League than his predecessor.
While sitting in 13th place and possibly out of European football for next season unless some magic happens in the Europa League and United win it.
After calling his players the ‘worst team in United’s history’, he was forced to retract and even admit that it was a mistake, noting that he was speaking about himself as the team’s leader.
This was clearly something that Ten Hag started doing (over-protecting his players), which made him a disaster in the press room for many fans and a viral piece in the story.
Ruben is known for his honesty, which he will have to keep showing to avoid losing the fans and media by lying and trying to save face, just like Ten Hag did.
