Yesterday, after their terrible season took yet another turn for the worse, Manchester United’s struggling players were seen out and about for a team-building evening.
Last time out, United lost 1-0 to fellow struggling team Tottenham, dropping them to 15th place in the Premier League and eight points outside the top half of the standings. They are also only 12 points above the relegation zone, which is damning.
Ruben Amorim has made no secret of the fact that his job is “so hard” and complicated by “a lot of problems,” and this was their sixth top-flight loss under his leadership.
However, his teammates had a fun evening in Altrincham where they booked out, seemingly in an effort to improve their mood.

They were pictured going to Lane 7 Bowling Alley, where they indulged in pool, table tennis, darts, shuffleboard, and ten pin bowling.
Even though the club is struggling financially and has implemented controversial cost-cutting measures, bowling at the popular bar costs £12 per round, which is a pittance.
The group then headed home after dining in style at a Brazilian restaurant a short walk along Stamford New Road shortly after 7 p.m.

Rasmus Hojlund was observed in a cheerful mood, while Alejandro Garnacho, Manuel Ugarte, and Leny Yoro were among those saw strolling to the restaurant.
Earlier in the day, Bruno Fernandes also smiled while out on a stroll.
Harry Maguire and Jonny Evans, two of Amorim’s most experienced center backs, seemed to laugh with one another.

United, who have lost eight of their past 12 league games, will play their first game back at Goodison Park on Saturday against Everton, who are currently playing well.
Amorim’s roster has been left threadbare due to several injuries to first-team regulars, which has forced him to turn to the academy, which has made matters worse.
At Tottenham, he filled his bench with young players due to an absentee list that currently has twelve names on it. Teenager Chido Obi made his debut as a substitute in stoppage time.

Amorim said to Sky Sports, “I have a lot of problems.” “I am here to continue my job with my beliefs and I will try to win again, even though my job is really difficult.”
“It is the hardest competition in the world,” he continued.
I’m attempting to exercise caution around them. The team seemed to be working toward the goal, and I didn’t want to change. They will play, though.
“My goal is to assist my players.” I am confident in my work, I am aware of my circumstances, and all I want is to win games.
“I’m worried about the spot at the table, not about myself.”
