Ruben Amorim has said his Manchester United team might be the worst in the club’s history following their 3-1 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion on Sunday.
United failed to register a shot on target in open play as Brighton dominated at Old Trafford.
The result means Amorim has already suffered four home Premier League defeats since taking over as manager from Erik ten Hag, who was sacked at the end of October.
“We are getting a new coach who is losing more than the last coach,” Amorim said. “I have full knowledge of that. I am not going to change, no matter what.
“I know we can succeed but we need to survive this moment. I am not naive. We need to survive now. We are the worst team, maybe, in the history of Manchester United.
“I know you want headlines but I am saying that because we have to acknowledge that and to change that. Here you go: your headlines.”
After two positive results against Liverpool and Arsenal, Amorim said he would learn more about his players during the games against Southampton and Brighton.
