Manchester United Faces Historic Decline Under Ruben Amorim

Manager Ruben Amorim calls his squad the 'worst in Manchester United history' as the club faces its bleakest Premier League campaign since 1992.

• Manchester United has lost six of their first 12 home games this season, a record not seen since the 1893-94 campaign.
• Manager Ruben Amorim criticized his players and described the current squad as the weakest in the club’s history, possibly aiming to provoke a response or push for January signings.
• The club's struggles are attributed to years of mismanagement, poor recruitment, and a lack of focus on on-field success since the departure of Sir Alex Ferguson in 2013.
• Despite a £1.02 billion transfer expenditure since 2018, costly signings like Antony and Rasmus Hojlund have failed to deliver consistent performances.
• Recent ownership changes, including Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s 27% stake and INEOS assuming football operations, have yet to reverse the team’s decline, leaving them 13th in the Premier League.
