La Jue asked Amorin to promise to stay at Manchester United before he could spend a lot of money to buy people to rebuild him! Worrying that the coach resigns in despair

Manchester United owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe witnessed the team's loss at Stamford Bridge on Friday, and his frown and his head held in his hands was ridiculed by the audience as "face of regret". British media said that the 72-year-old La Jue is willing to support coach Ruben Amorin's reconstruction, but he hopes the 40-year-old Portuguese promises that he will definitely stay. Manchester United set two more shameful records after losing to Chelsea 0-1. First of all, the team's league missed 8 consecutive games, which is the first time in the Premier League era. In addition, the Red Devils have been confirmed to be unable to achieve a winning streak in the Premier League this season, which is also the first time in history.

Manchester United won only 10 games in the 37th round of the Premier League, far lower than the past lowest 2021/22 season, when they also won 16 games. If Manchester United loses to Aston Villa in the last round of the season, they will hit another new low, which means half of the league's games will be lost!

After a recent loss to West Ham United, Amorin publicly stated that if the team does not make progress next season, he may give the space to different people. This statement made the Manchester United boss worried. He was worried that Amorin would choose to resign because he felt that the task of rebuilding Manchester United was too difficult. If so, the players the club brought in for him may be in vain, just like Tenhager at the beginning of this season.

The Sun said that La Jue believed that Amorin had a personality similar to himself, the maverick nature that made him build Inez into a global petrochemical giant and himself a billionaire. But he hopes that the Portuguese young marshal promises to fulfill the remaining two-year contract at least, rather than leave halfway.

Some people are worried that even if Manchester United beat Tottenham Hotspur and won the UEFA Cup on Wednesday, Amorin may choose to retreat. The Red Devils coach has said a lot of despicable words recently, such as his Manchester United is the worst in the Premier League history, his current lineup is not ready to play in the Champions League, and the players already have a mentality of losing.

La Jue is willing to allow Amorin to discuss with himself, CEO Omar Berrada and technical director Jason Wilcox who will stay and what new players will be introduced to give him a greater say, but they will only do so if the coach determines to coach for a long time. Otherwise, the club's senior executives may face the embarrassment of spending a lot of money to buy people for the coach, but within a year they have to find the third new coach.

Manchester United legend Roy Keane angrily scolded his old club, believing that the Red Devils had lost their dignity. "At Stamford Bridge, I think they are no longer angry, they accept (bad reality). Even the head coach (Amorin) was interviewed, they accepted the status quo. You do need to be realistic, but you still have to keep your emotions and anger. When fans return to Manchester, this is not unexpected. No one thinks that Manchester United will win, including the coach and the players. The Chelsea coach also said in a superior tone: "Manchester" United played well and created pressure on us. "Please, Manchester United only had one shot directly. Chelsea should pat their opponent's head and said: Go back to Manchester City, just like Manchester United in the past."

On the court, only a few Manchester United players also showed fighting spirit. Captain Bruno Fernandez and central defender Maguire angrily criticized Garnacho, who had just come on the bench after conceding the ball, who allowed Rees James to break through easily and sent a cross assist. This unwillingness to admit defeat made Amorin feel comforted. "After conceding the goal, players fighting is a good thing and a positive sign." Amorin said, "We are struggling this season, but we cannot do anything. We must start from now on, prepare for the finals and prepare for the next season."

Amorin denied that the starting lineup against Chelsea was the main lineup of the Europa League final: "We will collect information, but the opponents are different, the environment is different, and sometimes the starting and substitutes are different. So, I got some information through this game, but I still don't know who will start in the final."
