by Ruben Amorim says that Manchester United players and the staff of the first team must assume their share of responsibility for the club redundancies and the price of the price of tickets.
This is a difficult period on and off the field at Old Trafford, with the languid 14th side in the classification of the Premier League while the co -owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe supervises certain controversial decisions behind the scenes.
Ineos reduced the advantages of staff and lost about a quarter of United Staff in the summer, with more layoffs when they seek to reduce losses that totaled 300 million pounds sterling during the three last years.
Ticket prices have also increased while United seeks to overcome the financial constraints that grew up under the Glazers – problems that Morim says that the first team cannot hesitate.
“I think it is really important for us in the first team, coaches and players, not to ignore this,” said the united head coach. “People lose their jobs, so we have to recognize it.
“And the biggest problem is the football team because we spend the money, we do not earn, we are not in the Champions League, so income is not the same.
“And we have spent a lot of money in the past, and now we have to pay attention to finances. We cannot rebuild the team as you wish.
“People lose their jobs. Of course, this feeling of saving their work is difficult to have this feeling and it affects the environment, so I think we cannot ignore.
“We recognize this problem and I want to say that the manager (people) is the first team.
“We have to change that. Changing that the first part we have to make is to win against Tottenham.
“It’s the short step to try to help these people, to try not to increase ticket prices. We are responsible for it.
The honesty of Amorim about the situation came before Sunday’s trip to his underperforming colleagues of Premier League Tottenham, where the Ango Postecoglou counterpart is another pressure coach.
The two managers were criticized for having respected their methods rather than being more pragmatic, although the Portuguese are convinced that he has the required support of Ineos.
Despite this, the highly classified head coach, Amorim, who arrived from Sporting in November, knows that patience only takes place so far and the risk is attached to this approach.
“Yeah, I accept that,” he said. “This is a choice you make when you are a coach and I really believe (in) the way I do things, and I know that in this kind of club, with this kind of pressure, you are always at risk.
“So I am aware of this and this is not my greatest concern. I repeat – Losing games is the most difficult part of my work.
“Being dismissed, maybe sometimes it’s like a release, so I just want to win. I just want to win games.
