Manchester United players would have been 'killed' by Ruben Amorim's assessment that they are part of 'the worst team' in the club's history, Gary Neville has claimed. Amorim came out with the alarming comment after United suffered a seventh defeat in 15 games under their new head coach against Brighton on Sunday. The 39-year-old also damaged a TV in the dressing-room during a post-match rant at Old Trafford.

'We are the worst team maybe in the history of Manchester United,' Amorim admitted after the game. Soon after, he apologised in a long comment, with some of it reading: 'I'm a young guy and sometimes I make a mistake,' he said ahead of Thursday's Europa League tie against Rangers.

'That's why I don't talk after the game. This game, I needed to talk and maybe it was a mistake and then I get more nervous and go to the press conference really nervous and say things I shouldn't say, that's it. I don't promise you I won't do it again, but I will try to improve.'.
