Manchester United continues to believe in Amorim: what the numbers show after the 0-3 defeat.

According to The Sun: The Manchester United management decided to support Ruben Amorim despite the heavy defeat in the Manchester derby.

The 40-year-old coach witnessed his team's 0-3 loss at the Etihad Stadium, where his players looked quite powerless.

This defeat left the club at Old Trafford with the worst start to the season since 1992. Last month, the team also suffered a historic defeat in the League Cup against lower division club Grimsby.

According to SunSport, some United stars began to lose faith in Amorim as he continues to use the 3-4-3 formation, although the club's management denied these rumors.

However, statistics suggest that there is some logic in supporting the former Sporting coach, who has the worst win percentage among all the club's coaches since World War II.

Statistics are improving

Last season, the Red Devils showed rather weak offensive results, finding themselves at the bottom of the table for shots on target, goals scored, and expected goals.

This season, compared to competitors, United is showing a significant improvement in attacking play.

They rank first in overall shots and touches in the opponent's penalty area.

However, there is still work to be done to improve the statistics for goals scored and conversion percentage. For example, a 5.7% conversion rate is the main reason why United cannot achieve victories.

Amorim is preparing for the match against Chelsea at Old Trafford on Saturday, where his team currently sits in 14th place in the table.

Chelsea, on the other hand, is in fifth place with two wins and two draws in their first four matches, all of which were London derbies.

This could be an exciting confrontation, as former United star Alejandro Garnacho returns to the team, who faced criticism after a mistake in the match against Brentford that cost Chelsea the victory.

Manchester United player ratings in the match against Man City

Manchester United continues to have a difficult start to the season after the defeat against Manchester City.

Ruben Amorim's team could not recover after the international break and suffered a 0-3 defeat in the away match.

Phil Foden opened the scoring for City in the 18th minute, while Erling Haaland scored a brace in the second half.

After this defeat, United sits in 14th place in the table.

This is how SunSport rated each of the Manchester United players.

The situation in the team is complicated, and ahead of United are important matches that could significantly impact the club's fate in this year's season. The coach's support may prove to be a defining factor for the team's recovery and success. It is worth closely monitoring all of this, as the results of the upcoming matches could dramatically change the situation.
