""I want to be as supportive and positive as I can be on the manager and the players. "But it is very difficult to sit here and say we are seeing progression, and at least we're seeing things that will get results in the near future. We're seeing none of that, and it is very difficult. "There was an image towards the end of the game where I saw the Manchester United fans leaving. You could hear the fans singing Amorim's name, but I think that is so powerful that the United fans were leaving the game. "You know the game is over, and I think they were very disappointed in what they were seeing.""
"Since MD12 of 2024-25 (Ruben Amorim's first game in charge of Man Utd), no ever-present Premier League team have performed worse than Manchester United (31 points from 31 games, -13 goal difference)."
"Following their defeat to City, United now face an 11% chance of relegation from the Premier League this season, higher than their 7.3% probability of finishing in the top five, according to the Opta supercomputer's projections."
Manchester United have shown declining performances and results under Ruben Amorim since he took charge on matchday 12. The team lost 3-0 to Manchester City, following defeats to Arsenal and Grimsby Town, and finished last season 15th with 42 points. From Amorim's first game United have compiled 31 points from 31 Premier League matches with a -13 goal difference, the joint-lowest return alongside Tottenham. Wayne Rooney expressed the difficulty of seeing progression, noted fans leaving the derby while chanting Amorim's name, and highlighted growing supporter disappointment. Opta projects an 11% relegation probability and a 7.3% chance of a top-five finish.
