Arsenal Defeat Man U as Amorim Sets Premier League Record for Fast Losses
Manchester United’s 1-0 defeat to Arsenal at Old Trafford on Sunday handed manager Ruben Amorim an unwanted piece of Premier League history. A well-placed header from Riccardo Calafiori was enough to secure all three points for the visitors, leaving United empty-handed despite a performance that showed signs of improvement from last season.
The loss, however, means Amorim now holds an unenviable record. Stats from Opta reveal he has suffered 15 defeats in just 28 league matches, with only seven wins and six draws. No manager, outside of those in charge of newly promoted clubs, has reached that many defeats so quickly since Paul Hart at Portsmouth in 2009, who hit the mark after 27 games.
The numbers highlight United’s ongoing struggles.

Morocco coach Mohamed Ouahbi speaks on the Netherlands’ elimination from the World Cup.
The coach explained why the team was eliminated. “Morocco has gained everybody’s respect now,” Ouahbi said, adding: “It’s not because of what we’ve said. We’ve now shown it.
“We completely dominated a Netherlands team. We had 70% possession, more shots and more expected goals. We controlled the match. We wanted to stay calm, play our game and believe that if it went to penalties, we had an exceptional goalkeeper. We didn’t turn the match into a chaotic battle. We controlled it.”
