Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has not improved the side’s form after taking over from Erik ten Hag but Cristiano Ronaldo has backed him to end the ‘storm’ at the club
Cristiano Ronaldo on Man Utd: “The problem is not the coaches. It’s like the aquarium and you have the fish inside and it’s sick, and you take him out and fix the problem. If you put it back in the aquarium it will be sick again. This is the problem of Manchester United. It is the same.”
Cristiano Ronaldo has backed Ruben Amorim to turn around Manchester United’s fortunes by insisting the “storm will finish” at Old Trafford under his fellow Portuguese.
Amorim has had a tough start to life at United, losing five of his first 10 games in charge since succeeding Erik ten Hag last month.
The 39-year-old even suggested after the 2-0 Boxing Day defeat at Wolves – a third successive loss in all competitions – that his job would be in danger if United do not find form soon.
“He (Amorim) did a fantastic job in Portugal with my (club) Sporting,” said Ronaldo, speaking at the Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai where the Al Nassr forward was named Best Middle East Player of 2024.
“But the Premier League is a different beast, the most competitive league in the world.
