The Portuguese coach has now been at the helm of Manchester United for 3 months, and the problems instead of decreasing are increasing.

Rubén Amorim head coach of Manchester United have regrets in a Premier League match this season.

The Portuguese coach Rubén Amorim, has now been at the helm of Manchester United for 3 months, and the problems instead of decreasing are increasing.


It is not only that the team does not convince with its image. It does not convince with its results, it also saw the international Argentine stopper, Lisandro Martinez, injured once again in the home defeat against Crystal Palace. And no one can say for how long its very important defender will be absent again. According to many, he is also the best that United has today.

His injury was a goal-scoring one. He literally froze Old Trafford in the 76th minute, watching Martinez in an unsuspecting moment claim the ball against Sarr. And suddenly he stepped badly on the grass and fell to the ground. The 28-year-old footballer was writhing in pain and the stretcher immediately entered the field. About six minutes later, he was carried in tears to the locker room on the stretcher, his image being particularly worrying.


5 home defeats


And of course, United and Amorim left Old Trafford in the end having suffered five home defeats in their last six games in their "home". And the Portuguese Ruben Amorim "broke" a historical negative record.


The Portuguese coach needed just seven league games to reach five home defeats, in less time than any other and by a wide margin. As David Moyes follows in 2nd place, who when he led United had experienced 5 home defeats in 14 games at "Old Trafford"!.


In fact, this was the Portuguese's 7th defeat in 13 games and in this way he already surpassed the six defeats he had in his last 75 matches on the bench of Sporting Lisbon!.


Manchester United - How many games did they lose 5 home games in:


1. Ruben Amorim - 7

2. David Moyes - 14

3. Erik ten Hag - 28

4. Louis van Gaal - 30

5. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer - 31

6. Sir Alex Ferguson - 88
