Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim noticed the table of the Premier League “says everything” after being dismantled in the St. James’ Park by Newcastle United.
The Magpies convinced the 4: 1 winners after a breathtaking display in the second half, in which Harvey Barnes and a fourth Premier League goal of the season were built by Bruno Guimaraes on Sandro Tonalis excellent strike ago.
Alejandro Garnacho scored United’s goal before the break, but the Red Devils retired in the second 45 minutes and made countless mistakes to give Newcastle the initiative.
In order to insult the injury, United Joshua lost to an injury in the second half and Amorim expects “he will be outside for some games”.
“Many mistakes. Newcastle was stronger in second balls. We made a lot of mistakes that made it more difficult to win a game. That is all,” said Amorim to Sky Sport from United’s performance. “It’s a bit of everything. It is difficult to point out one thing. It is really difficult to win over these top teams like Newcastle. If we make mistakes to help the opponent, it is even more difficult. Let us concentrate on Thursday.
“I think you can see that we can do so much better.
The increasing number of dark performance by United inevitably took criticism, but Amorim accepted when they accepted what the media and supporters may say, insisted that he could not deal with the next game of the team.
“I understand [the criticism] But I don’t care. Nothing is worse than losing games. People can say what they want to say. I don’t want to defend myself or something.
“If you look at our position in the table, it says it all. Thursday is really important. Playing is by far the most difficult part of this job. Focus on us on Thursday.
“Of course it is really important. We have the chance to get the Champions League. It is an important game. It will be really difficult. We have to concentrate on it and come to the next level.
“We have such a season with difficult losses. We are used to getting up. Let us do Thursday. It is another game. We have to give our fans something and go to the next level.”
