In the 37th round of the 2024-25 Premier League, Manchester United lost 0-1 to Chelsea away, suffering their 18th defeat in the league this season.
At the post-match press conference, Manchester United coach Ruben Amorim attended the press conference, faced outside doubts about the team's record, and emphasized that the current focus has shifted to the Europa League final.
This is the second most lost season in the league for Manchester United since they were relegated in the 1973-74 season. Regarding this embarrassing record, Amorim said: "We are fully aware of the seriousness of the situation and have discussed it internally."
"But nothing can be changed. We've had a difficult season and now the most important thing is to prepare for the Europa League final, try to win a trophy and then look to next season."
Despite the Europa League final approaching, Amorim still sent out a nearly full lineup in this game, which aroused some doubts. In response, Amorim firmly responded: "Yes, I am satisfied with my arrangement. First of all, it is a feeling."
"I was not satisfied with the team's condition after the last game, but this time we have enough time to recover and prepare. The team has five days to prepare, including two days of full recovery, two days of tactical preparation and one day of actual combat exercises."
"If I continue to rotate, many players will not play for nearly 10 days. I don't like this rhythm. We are Manchester United and we need to be competitive in every game. When you have enough time to recover and prepare, I believe the best way to prepare is the game itself."
Although the result of this game was disappointing, Manchester United still showed a certain fighting spirit and fighting spirit. Facing turmoil and doubts, Amorim obviously chose to face it positively, using a stable rhythm of appearances to lay the foundation for the upcoming Europa League final.
