United boss left red-faced by Hammers loss; says culture, himself included, needs change
-
LONDON - Ruben Amorim said he feared his Manchester United side were forgetting their responsibilities as players at one of the world's major clubs, while casting doubt on his own future following a 2-0 Premier League loss at home to West Ham United on May 11.
Just three days after the Red Devils reached the Europa League final, they were brought down to earth by another lowly side in the Hammers, with the London club recording their first top-flight win at Old Trafford since 2007.
Tomas Soucek and Jarrod Bowen scored the visitors' goals as United suffered a 17th defeat in 36 league games this season, with nine of those losses in front of their own fans.
This latest lacklustre display angered Amorim, who has already given his team several public dressing downs since replacing the sacked Erik ten Hag as United manager in November.
"For me the biggest concern is that feeling that 'it's OK', and 'we cannot change our position so much, so it's OK,'" the Portuguese said.
