Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has said that he approached games last season with anxiety about his teams prospects.
In a conversation with reporters accompanying United on their pre-season tour in the United States, Amorim shared for the first time just how deeply troubled he felt overseeing the clubs most disappointing season since the relegation in 1973-74.
United wrapped up the last season in 15th place in the Premier League, marking their lowest finish since the 1989-90 season.
To tell you the truth, its not how I returned to my house after the games, it was how I left to go to the games, because I felt that sometimes we will struggle, he said.
Amorim, who took over from Erik ten Hag in November 2024, managed only seven victories out of 27 league matches and experienced a crushing Europa League final loss against Tottenham in Bilbao.
