Amorim, who has been at the club for nearly a year, has faced criticism after a poor season where United finished 15th in the Premier League—their worst since 1973-74. Despite spending over £200 million this summer, the team has already suffered three league losses and was eliminated from the EFL Cup by a lower-league team.
According to BBC, Ratcliffe dismissed speculation about Amorim’s job security, emphasizing that he requires time to demonstrate his capabilities. He criticized the media for expecting immediate success, stating that a club like Manchester United cannot be run on impulsive reactions.
Ratcliffe also addressed the club’s financial management, noting a significant reduction in losses over the past year, despite recent job cuts and the removal of staff perks.
He believes that profitability is crucial for building a competitive squad and is optimistic about United becoming the most profitable football club globally, which he believes will lead to improved performance on the pitch.
