Ruben Amorim Blames Manchester United’s ‘Lack of Belief’ for Losses as Relegation Fear Looms

Two wins in eight league games, that’s the reality for the mighty Manchester United right now. Ouch, right? The Red Devils find themselves just seven points clear of the relegation zone, and honestly, it’s a tough pill to swallow. As the old saying goes, “In bad weather, even the best seeds may fail to grow.” It feels like that’s exactly what’s happening at Old Trafford. According to Ruben Amorim, the recent string of defeats seems to have sucked the belief out of the players.

The Newcastle game? Oh boy. It took them only 19 minutes to go 2-0 up at Old Trafford. Just 19 minutes! Can you believe it? If that’s not a clear sign of shattered confidence, I don’t know what is. And it’s not just this game, Ruben Amorim’s side has won only two matches while losing four across all competitions. Talk about setting the wrong kind of records. Here’s a stat that will hurt: this is the first time in 45 years that Manchester United has lost three Premier League games in a row. Yep, you read that right, 45 years.

Do you agree that Manchester United’s current situation isn’t looking good? Ruben Amorim talked about the players’ physical and mental suffering as a result of the frequent setbacks. To be honest, you don’t need to be a genius to figure it out. As supporters, we can feel the incredulity and lack of energy on the field. As a Manchester United supporter, it’s difficult to watch, isn’t it?

Take Monday night, for example. Alexander Isak needed just three and a half minutes. Yep, that’s it, to put Newcastle ahead against United. Talk about rubbing salt in the wounds. That 2-0 loss didn’t just hurt the team; it left Ruben Amorim and the fans asking some serious questions. In his post-match press conference, the Portuguese boss tried to highlight some positives. He mentioned how the team showed glimpses of improvement against heavyweights like City, Tottenham, and even the first half against Arsenal.

“We show some improvement in the first games, especially City, Tottenham, and the first half against Arsenal. We are losing that because of the lack of training, and lack of belief after so many losses.” But here’s the kicker, the 39-year-old admitted they’ve lost that spark. And why? According to him, it’s down to a lack of training time and the players’ growing loss of belief after so many defeats.

So, who’s to blame here? The players? The coaching staff? The management? But one thing’s for sure, this mess needs fixing ASAP. Why? Because Liverpool is up next, and then there’s Arsenal in the FA Cup third round. If things don’t change fast, it could go from bad to worse.

Oh, and speaking of things going south, did you hear what Cristiano Ronaldo said recently about Man United Problems?

Ronaldo’s honest take on what’s wrong with Ruben Amorim’s Manchester United?

Cristiano Ronaldo doesn’t hold back, does he? The Portuguese forward recently spoke at the Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai and gave his opinion on Manchester United’s struggles in the Premier League. Using a vivid metaphor, he compared United’s issues to an aquarium. “It’s like an aquarium. If you have the fish inside and he’s sick and you take it out and you fix the problem and you put him again in an aquarium they will be sick again.”

The 39-year-old icon doubled down, reminding everyone that he’s been saying this for over a year now. “The problem of Manchester United is the same. The problem is not always the coach. It’s much more than that.” Ouch! Basically, Ronaldo’s saying the problems at United run much deeper than the coaches. As a Red Devils fan, it’s quite hard to digest this but if a great player is openly saying this then there must be something. Isn’t?

However, with the clock ticking against them and big games around the corner United really needs to pull themselves together. Don’t you agree?
