| Ruben almiron looks frustrated in a match |
Ruben Amorim acknowledges that he would have preferred to remain at Sporting for the remainder of the season due to his difficult beginning at Manchester United.
Amorim has secured four victories and suffered eight losses in 14 Premier League matches, placing them in 15th position, now below Everton before their upcoming visit to Goodison Park on Saturday.
In the meantime, the Toffees' situation has improved since David Moyes' return, with him managing four victories in six league matches to pull them clear of the relegation area.
When questioned about why Everton has experienced a boost with their new manager while United has not, Amorim replied: “David Moyes is performing better than I am, it’s really straightforward.”
"We must acknowledge the players of Everton, particularly their coach, and we should also extend that same recognition."
“It’s a remarkable effort by David Moyes to rebuild the team.” "You sense that the confidence and faith are present."
Moyes was the inaugural manager to take over from Sir Alex Ferguson at United, and almost 12 years later, the legendary manager’s achievements still loom over Amorim.
"It demonstrates that it's a tough role," the Portuguese manager stated when questioned about the influence of Ferguson’s legacy.
"We need to attempt to comprehend the past." This club had a presence in Sir Alex Ferguson that is irreplaceable.
"All things were linked to one individual, and when that individual departs, it's quite difficult."
A report this week stated that Amorim wished to postpone his arrival at Old Trafford until the season's conclusion to guarantee he would have summer time to collaborate with the players and instill his philosophy.
Amorim verified that this was true, emphasizing that it’s “common sense.”
Amorim remarked: “I believe that’s obvious.” It’s basic knowledge. At the beginning of a season, it's entirely distinct.
"I had my motives for requesting it, and I possess the most significant reasons to take the job." I was aware it would be challenging and risky, but it’s Manchester United, and you simply can’t refuse.”
However, when questioned about whether he regrets his choice to lead the club, considering the circumstances, Amorim insists that while he frequently feels “angry” about the outcomes, he stays concentrated on the upcoming match.
He stated: "No, once more, we decide and we follow through completely."
"Naturally, it can be quite exasperating to hear 14 matches and only four victories at Manchester United." Even at a different club, it’s quite challenging and extremely annoying.
At times I feel frustrated and angry. "We can alter that in the upcoming match."
