JAKARTA - Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim emphasized that he is not worried about the security of his work even though he has just lost his 12th in the 2024/2025 Premier League.

The Red Devils lost 0-1 to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday, February 16, 2025, and slumped in 15th position.

James Maddison's goal from the rebound in the first half proved enough for Spurs to beat Manchester United 1-0 in a tight match.

Amoritam kini telah kalah dekali delapan dari 14 pertandingan liga sejak mengganti Erik ten Hag sebagai pelatih.

However, he said he was more worried about being in the lower half of the standings than possible loss of role.

"I'm not worried (work). I understand our fans, what the media think about it."

"I hate losing, that feeling is the worst. I don't think about the rest. I'm here to help my players."

"I understand my situation, my job. I am confident in my job. I just want to win the game."

"The position in the standings is my concern. I'm not worried about myself," Amorious told the BBC.

The Portuguese coach continued to complain of the thin margins that determined the match, with Alejandro Garnacho in particular guilty of wasting golden opportunities to equalize before the first half whistle sounded.

"That's what distinguishes the game, they score goals and we don't. We have chances."

"We had a situation in the transition, trying to get results, but in the end they scored and we didn't," said the Portuguese coach.

Manchester United were hit hard this weekend as Amad Diallo was likely absent for the remainder of the season due to an ankle ligament injury he suffered during training.

The lack of Amory choice was clarified by his bench on Sunday, with Victor Lindelof the only first-team player among an untested group of teenagers.

Only Chido Obi-Martin was called and it happened at the last moment of the match. Even so, Amorim emphasized that he acted carefully.

"This is the hardest competition in the world. I try to be careful with them. I feel the team are trying hard to score goals and I don't want to change. However, they will play."

"You try to read the game, understand what you see in training. The team is trying hard to score goals and I don't feel the need to change," he said.

Manchester United's next match is against Everton on Saturday, February 22, 2025.

David Moyes' team is on the rise by holding Liverpool's draw 2-2 and winning over Crystal Palace 2-1 in two games before hosting Manchester United later.
