Ruben Amorim admitted his Manchester United team is possibly the worst in the club's history as they hit a new low at Old Trafford on Sunday.
On the day United paid tribute to the legendary Denis Law, Brighton defeated him 3-1. The home record this season is the club's worst in the league in 131 years.
“We are perhaps the worst team in Manchester United's history,” Amorim admitted.
'I say this because we have to recognize it and change it. Here you go: your headlines.
“It is unacceptable to lose so many games. For any Premier League club, can you imagine Manchester United?
'The rivals are better than us in many details. I am only here to help my players, but we must understand that we are breaking all the bad records.

Kaoru Mitoma scored the second goal as Brighton beat United 3-1 at Old Trafford on Sunday.
The dismal afternoon marked Manchester United's tenth Premier League defeat of the season.
“In 10 Premier League games we won two. I know that. Imagine what this is like for a United fan. Imagine what this is for me. We get a new coach who is losing more than the last coach. I am fully aware of it.'
Amorim warned that the worst may be yet to come because he will not change his tactics.
“I knew it was going to be difficult to come up with a completely new idea right now, but when you lose games it becomes really difficult,” he added. 'That's why I tell you that we are going to suffer because I will continue doing the same thing. I'm not going to change, no matter what.'
Amorim also criticized his players for losing discipline and form towards the end of the match.
'Everyone was changing positions and that's something I won't see again. “We can lose but we have to maintain our position,” he said.
“We try to have possession and control the ball, but the players are anxious. This is not acceptable.
'I know we can be successful, but we have to survive this moment. I'm not naive. We need to survive now.”
