"Something has to change. In this moment, we need to focus on the weekend and then we have time to think. Everything [was wrong]. The way we started the game, we were not even here. When everything is so important in our club, everything that happened - it's a problem in our club. We should do so much better. I just have to say sorry to our fans. I felt my players spoke really loud today about what they want."
"No, but I'm the manager, the Portuguese said. It should be my job to understand what happened. Again, I'm really sorry for our fans. Let's focus on the next game. Last season United finished in a record Premier League low 15th. He admitted that his side has not improved. That is more than a result said Amorim. That is the biggest problem in the team. I think it was really clear today."
Ruben Amorim apologised to fans and questioned his players' desire after Grimsby's penalty-shootout win eliminated Manchester United from the Carabao Cup. United trailed 2-0 at half-time to Charles Vernam and Tyrell Warren before Bryan Mbeumo and Harry Maguire forced penalties. United lost 12-11 on spot-kicks after Mbeumo missed his second kick, marking the first time fourth-tier opposition beat United in the competition. Amorim called the defeat the nadir and demanded change, saying everything was wrong and the club must do better. He urged focus on the next game and on thinking things through during the international break.
