Ticket prices have also gone up as United seek to overcome financial constraints that have grown under the Glazers – issues that Amorim says the first team cannot shy away from.
“I think it’s really important for us in the first team, coaches and players, not to ignore that,” the United head coach said.
Ruben Amorim says Manchester United’s players and first-team staff must take their share of responsibility for the club’s redundancies and ticket price hikes.
Ineos slashed staff benefits and shed around a quarter of United’s staff over the summer, with more redundancies planned as they seek to reduce losses that totalled £300million over the last three years.
Amorim’s honesty about the situation came ahead of Sunday’s trip to fellow Premier League underperformers Tottenham, where counterpart Ange Postecoglou is another coach under pressure.
