Amorim Condemns ‘Feeling of Entitlement’ at Manchester United

Manchester United

head coach Ruben Amorim has expressed his frustration with the “feeling of entitlement” that has been prevalent at the club. In a press conference held on Friday, Amorim addressed the issue, stating that players should use criticism and difficult moments as fuel to prove him wrong.
The comments come after midfielder Kobbie Mainoo’s half-brother was seen wearing a ‘Free Kobbie Mainoo’ T-shirt in response to the 20-year-old’s repeated absence from the starting line-up. Additionally, youngsters Harry Amass and Chido Obi posted pictures on social media highlighting their achievements after Amorim suggested last week that they were not doing well.
Club legends Rio Ferdinand, Nicky Butt, and Paul Scholes have advised Mainoo to leave the club, but Amorim disagrees with this approach. He believes that the players should stay and fight for their place in the team, rather than giving up.
“There is a feeling of entitlement we have in our club,” Amorim said. “Sometimes, difficult moments are not a bad thing for the kids. We don’t always need accolades in everything. We are not helping.”
Amorim also addressed the issue of players speaking out against the club, stating that it is not helpful. He believes that the players should focus on their performance on the pitch and not get distracted by external factors.
The head coach also praised captain Bruno Fernandes, who recently spoke out about his “hurt” at United being willing to sell him in the summer. Amorim feels that Fernandes sets a good example for the rest of the team and encourages them to work hard and prove themselves.
Amorim’s comments come as Manchester United prepares to face Aston Villa on Sunday, with six senior first-team players unavailable due to suspension, injury, or international duty.

Details

Amorim’s comments have sparked a debate about the culture at Manchester United, with some players and fans feeling that the club has become too focused on individual achievements rather than team success.
The head coach’s approach has been criticized by some, who feel that he is too lenient with the players. However, Amorim remains confident that his approach will yield positive results in the long run.
Manchester United’s next match is against Aston Villa on Sunday, and Amorim will be looking to see his team bounce back from a disappointing 4-4 draw with Bournemouth on Monday.
