Manchester United's Ruben Amorim says Red Devils are 'maybe the worst team in the history' of club

United lost 3-1 to Brighton at home on Sunday and continue to fail to approach midtable, but are they really the worst?

Manchester United's Ruben Amorim said his team is "maybe the worst team in the history" of the club shortly after Sunday's 3-1 loss to Brighton and Hove Albion, his fourth loss at home since taking the job in November.

The Red Devils took just one shot on target during the game, which came via a penalty that Bruno Fernandes scored in the 23rd minute. They now sit 13th in the Premier League, closer to the relegation zone than they are to the top four.

"In 10 games in the Premier League, we won two, I know that," Amorim said about the form since his arrival post-match, per The Athletic. "Imagine this for a fan of Manchester United, imagine this for me. You are getting a new coach who is losing more than the last coach. Imagine that. We need to survive this moment. I know that. We are being maybe the worst team in the history of Manchester United. I know that you want headlines but I'm saying that because we have to acknowledge that and to change that. So there you go, your headline."
