Amorim to focus on future after Ronaldo criticism
The Straits Times
|November 08, 2025
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has responded to stinging criticism from club great Cristiano Ronaldo, urging fans and pundits alike to look forward rather than dwell on the past.
-
Ronaldo, who won nine trophies at United, told Piers Morgan in an interview aired this week that United were “not in a good path” and warned that Amorim was “not going to do miracles” there.
Amorim, who took over from Erik ten Hag in November 2024, hit back ahead of the English Premier League clash at Tottenham Hotspur on Nov 8.
“Of course, he has a huge impact in everything he said,” the Portuguese said. “What we need to focus (on) is in the future.
“We know that we as a club made a lot of mistakes in the past, but we are trying to change that. So let’s not focus on what happened. Let’s focus (on) what we are doing now.
“We are changing a lot of things in the structure, the way we do things, the way we want the players to behave. We are doing that and we are improving.”
United have shown signs of improvement, climbing to eighth, two points off second spot, after a four-game unbeaten run.
