Man Utd boss Ruben Amorim issues two apologies in Old Trafford speech as prediction made

Ruben Amorim used his final-day speech on the Old Trafford pitch to apologise to Manchester United fans and players. The Red Devils defeated Aston Villa to round off the campaign on a positive note but Amorim is determined to leave 2024/25 in the past.

"I apologise for this season," he said. "I'm really disappointed with the team. I know it was really hard to support us in many games. But now we have to make a choice. We stay stuck in the past, because this season is in the past, it's over, we fight each other, or we stick together and move forward [applause].

"Six months ago in my first three games in charge, with two victories and one draw, I said to you the storm is coming. Today, after this disaster season, I want to tell you the good days are coming [roar]. If there is one club in the world that proved in the past that it can overcome any situation, any disaster, it is our club, it is Manchester United Football Club.

"Now I want to say sorry to my players, sometimes I was not fair, but I always try to be honest with you guys. Thanks very much and see you next season."
