Manchester United will not go down in Championship, but the 2024/2025 season of the Red Devils in the Premier League is pitiful. Sixteenth in the ranking nearly thirty points of the second, the club dear to Sir Alex Ferguson had never fallen so low since the creation of the Premier League in 1992. The eighth place of last year was the worst ranking of the club in this competition. The men of Ruben Amorim managed to do worse.
Tonight, the Red Devils move to Chelsea and in the event of a defeat twinned by a Tottenham victory at Aston Villa, they can even go back to the seventeenth row.

It is more important than changing people. This is what we do, but people do not see it. The way we work and the behavior we have within the club. The things we don't see, we work there. We must forget the final (from Europa League) and be better against Chelsea. It is not acceptable to lose or draw. This feeling is not a question of confidence, it is a question of belief and understanding that we are Manchester United. Our position is unacceptable. It is not a lack of confidence, it is a lack of something deeper. »» Not really reassuring all that …
