Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has admitted he regrets saying the current team is the worst in the club’s history.
In a press conference on Wednesday, Amorim claimed he was pointing the finger of blame at himself rather than his players.
The 39-year-old made the remark following the 3-1 defeat to Brighton on Sunday.
Amorim has however insisted he would be “delusional” if he didn’t acknowledge that he has significant problems amid a run of seven losses from his 15 games in charge.
He said: “First of all, I want to talk about that.
“I was talking more about myself than the players. I also said in the same response that I was not helping my players. If you look around every time I speak and every time you push about the players are not good enough, I never put the spot on my players.
“So I understand I give you that headline and I am frustrated sometimes. Sometimes I should not say it in those terms, but it is what it is and that’s it.
“Sometimes it’s really hard to hide the frustration in the moment. But the good thing is I said the same things in a different way in the dressing room five minutes before. The response was quite normal because I’m really blunt with my players.”
