Ruben Amorim shocks

Insider sources from Manchester United reveal that coach Ruben Amorim often isolates himself from the group, living in silence after defeats, indicating that his role at Old Trafford is severely affecting his mental state.

The 1-3 loss against Brentford last weekend once again put Ruben Amorim’s future at the center of discussions. Since taking charge of Manchester United in November 2024, he has yet to lead the team to two consecutive Premier League wins. With only 9 victories in 33 matches and a 15th place finish last season, the Red Devils hit a historic low and missed European competition for the first time in 11 years.

According to CentreDevils, Amorim is described as a “lonely man”. During training sessions, he often keeps distance from players, and after losses, he sits quietly alone without talking to anyone.

One source even claimed that the job “has broken his spirit”, turning him into a “shadow” of himself compared to when he led Sporting CP. As a result, the atmosphere at Carrington has dropped to its lowest point in years.

This past summer, Man United spent heavily to revamp their attack with new signings Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha, and Benjamin Sesko. Although Sesko scored a consolation goal against Brentford, the team still showed persistent weaknesses in defense and midfield. Amorim’s steadfast 3-4-2-1 system continues to be criticized as inflexible and unsuitable for the current squad’s quality.

“When we win, the system is not the problem. When we lose, the system is blamed”, Amorim asserted, but faith in him is steadily diminishing.

The MU board, led by Sir Jim Ratcliffe, openly supports Amorim and believes he deserves more time to turn things around. However, internally the club acknowledges that everything could change if results keep declining. In fact, recent rumors about contacting Gareth Southgate have increased public doubt over the leadership’s so-called “patience.”

This weekend, Manchester United will host Sunderland — a newly promoted team currently thriving near the top. Another disappointing result at Old Trafford could turn the pressure on Ruben Amorim into a real storm, casting serious doubt on his chances to remain in charge.

With fans gradually losing faith, the image of a lonely and silent Amorim at Carrington clearly reflects the deadlock both he and the club are facing.
