Amorim Welcomes Ratcliffe’s Patience, But Insists United Need Immediate Fire
Liverpool, England – Manchester United manager Ruben amorim has acknowledged the value of Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s public commitment to a long-term project at Old trafford, but cautioned against complacency, stating that certainty is a luxury football simply doesn’t offer.
Ratcliffe, the club’s new minority owner, recently suggested it could take up to three years for amorim to fully reshape the struggling Premier League giants. the comments,made in an interview with The Times,arrived during a period of intense scrutiny surrounding the Portuguese manager’s future following a string of disappointing results.
Speaking ahead of sunday’s historic 100th meeting with rivals Liverpool at Anfield, Amorim expressed gratitude for Ratcliffe’s backing, but stressed the volatile nature of the sport. “It is indeed really good to hear it,” he said, “but he tells me all the time, even with messages after games, that football is not like that. The moast important thing is the next game. Even with owners, you cannot control the next day in football.”
The sentiment was echoed by CEO Omar Berrada, who admitted Amorim’s adaptation to the Premier League since arriving from Sporting Lisbon last November has proven more challenging than anticipated. Under Amorim, United have secured just 10 wins in 34 league matches, failing to string together consecutive victories and currently languishing no higher than ninth in the table.
These stark statistics are fueling growing unrest amongst the United faithful, notably as the team enters a crucial run of fixtures where their recent record is demonstrably poor.
Though, Amorim insists he feels no internal pressure stemming from the club’s precarious position.He maintains the pressure he places on himself and his players far outweighs external expectations – and, surprisingly, expressed a slight unease with Ratcliffe’s attempt to instill calm.
“I don’t like it because it gives a feeling that we have time to work things out,” Amorim explained. “I don’t want that feeling in our club.The pressure I put on the team is so much bigger. In football, especially in big clubs, you need to prove yourself every weekend.”
