Manchester United lost to West Ham United 0-2 at Old Trafford, and was hit by another team in a season double, setting a number of shameful records. The Red Devils lost nine home games in the Premier League, tying the worst record in team history 62 years ago; 17 losses in 36 league games, the most in 51 years. This is also the first time that Manchester United lost to the "Harves" at home in 16 games, and was double-killed by the team in 18 years.

The second leg of the UEFA Cup final was only three days ago, so Ruben Amorin performed a large rotation of Manchester United's starting lineup, with main players such as Casemiro, Maguire, Doorgu and Onana taking turns to rest. The 40-year-old Portuguese young coach was revealed to have been furious during the half-time break with Athletic Bilbao and injured his left finger. The game against West Ham may make him even more angry. In this game, Manchester United replaced the jersey ad with (RED) in order to support the charity, but perhaps the one they should print (BAD) on their chests.

Before being away from Manchester United, West Ham had already suffered eight games in nearly three months, and even Tottenham, who is competing with Manchester United for 17th in the Premier League, failed to win. However, in this game they met Manchester United, a team that had not won in the Premier League for two months. The last time the Red Devils won in the Premier League was on March 16, when the team defeated Leicester City 3-0 away.

Although he scored 19 goals in 6 games in the Europa League knockout stage, when he returned to the Premier League, Manchester United's downturn was still obvious, and West Ham was quickly motivated. In the 26th minute, the Red Devils' old player Wanbisaka made a wonderful pass in front of the penalty area, and Kudus hit the goal in the left side of the penalty area. Shochek beat young player Harry Amas from the back and sent the ball into the net. Manchester United trailed West Ham 0-1.

Manchester United had a chance to equalize the score, Mount passed the ball over the top, Hoylund shot against the goalkeeper but the ball missed the goal. At the end of the half, Manchester United fell behind and returned to the locker room together. The West Ham fans who were visiting shouted in unison: "How shit must you be?"

The side changes and fight again, Manchester United, who was 0-1, suffered a greater blow, and the main central defender Lenny Yoro was injured and had to leave the stadium. He cried on the spot and covered his face with his jersey. Maguire, Garnacho and Patrick Doorgu all comforted the 19-year-old French player as he walked to the locker room.

Yoro was injured without the ball. He fell to the ground with his left foot in a pre-season warm-up match. He had a fracture of the left metatarsal bone and was treated with surgery. After the examination, the team doctor told Amorin that he had to replace him, and the latter also covered his face with his hands. There are only 10 days before the final of the Europa League, and Yoro must compete with time to strive to make a comeback.

After the game, Yoro was found limping away from Old Trafford, but did not wear protective gear. Amorin said: "We hope this is not serious. We will conduct a more comprehensive assessment of the player tomorrow. He feels uncomfortable, but I think it may be just a small matter."

While substituting Yoro, Manchester United also replaced "Glass Man" Luke Shaw to avoid any further injuries. Manchester United made a mistake in the backcourt and conceded another goal. Ugath tried to rely on someone to protect the ball, but unexpectedly Wanbisaka avoided it quickly. Manchester United's midfielder fell to the ground and the ball was cut off. Wan Bisaka then made a cross from the left, Bowen scored with a left foot, and Manchester United scored 0-2 West Ham.

The Red Devils then continued to waste their chances of scoring. The team only scored 5 of them in 20 shots, but they did not win. Garnacho and Hoylund's shots were either missed or blocked by goalkeeper Areola.

, especially £72 million center Hoylund, staged a "hat trick" to squander opportunities, and kicked on his head and couldn't hit the goal.

In the end, Manchester United lost to West Ham 0-2 at home, and failed to win for seven consecutive rounds. The last time they encountered such an embarrassing record was in the first year of the founding of the Premier League in 1992. West Ham overtook the Red Devils in the standings, and Amorin's team did not fall to 17th place, just because Tottenham also lost 0-2 to Crystal Palace at home.

36 rounds of the Premier League, Manchester United won 10 wins, 9 draws and 17 losses, with a goal difference of -11 goals. When the Red Devils were relegated in the 1973/74 season, Tommy Dochetti's team also lost 17 games, but the goal difference was better than it is now. Amorin's team may lose more, and their opponents will be Chelsea and Aston Villa who will compete for five goals to the Champions League, and the game will be around the UEFA Cup final. Manchester United's center Hoylund couldn't even see it even West Ham fans and angrily scolded him for "It's really useless". Red Devils fans seem to remain optimistic about the team and dream of winning the Europa League final to reverse the end. But they may also be accustomed to failure and indifferent to the old Trafford audience did not boo.

However, coach Amorin himself could not stand it, admitting that Manchester United's performance was shocking and embarrassing that he might consider leaving if it still happens next season. The Red Devils coach once again emphasized that even if the Europa League can win, many things will change in the summer window. He is particularly dissatisfied with Manchester United's habit of losing.

"For me, the biggest worry is losing. Although our league rankings do not have much room for improvement, the biggest problem of the club is losing the feeling of a wealthy club." Amorin said, "In other big clubs, losing at home is the end of the world, and we don't feel that it is the most worrying place. How do I feel? A coach should be embarrassed in a situation like Manchester United, and it is unacceptable. Everyone must think about many of the problems here seriously."

Amorin refused to use the Europa League final as an excuse: "Maybe everyone is considering the final, but the final is not a problem at the moment. We need to think from a larger scope and deeper level, and we must change many aspects after the end of the season.. I won't discuss culture, it's a matter of attitude, the most dangerous feeling in a big club. In the Europa League, we may not play well, but we have a sense of urgency because we cannot lose, we must win, and finally found a way to win the game. But in the Premier League, we sometimes don’t concentrate and lack tension, which is a team spirit issue. I am here to say that I am the biggest responsible person. We need to change a lot in the summer. ”

, Amorin, whose left hand wound has not yet healed, made it clear: "I feel embarrassed to see the Premier League standings. In my opinion, whether to win the UEFA Cup will not change anything, because the problem is bigger than that."

Manchester United coach hinted that if it cannot be changed, he will consider leaving. "I don't want to talk about players either, I'm talking about myself. I'm talking about the culture of the club and the culture of the team. We have to change and become really strong and brave in the summer. If the mentality is still like this next season, we won't play well. If this feeling still exists, maybe Manchester United should give different coaches a chance." The only comfort for Manchester United is that their Europa League final rival Tottenham Hotspur was also bad, and they also suffered the blow from the injury of the main player. In Tottenham's 0-2 loss to Crystal Palace, Kulusevsky was injured after confronting Mark Guy, and then limped off the court with his head in his hands. Tottenham have lost midfielders James Madison and Lucas Bergwal.
