<p>Ruben Amorim admitted <a href="https://mid-day.com/sports/football/article/epl-harvey-barnes-brace-routs-man-utd-as-newcastle-rise-to-fourth-place-23519120" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"><strong>Manchester United</strong></a>&rsquo;s embarrassing 1-4 defeat at Newcastle on Sunday was the latest in a long line of mistake-filled performances from his troubled team.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Red Devils slumped to another chastening loss as Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes struck either side of Harvey Barnes&rsquo; brace for a rampant Newcastle at St James&rsquo; Park. Alejandra Garnacho scored United&rsquo;s only goal of the night.</p>
<p>&ldquo;[We made] many mistakes. They were stronger in the second balls, they were a better team, but we did a lot of mistakes which makes it harder to win a game,&rdquo; Amorim said. &ldquo;It is a little bit of everything, it is hard to point one thing that goes wrong in these moments,&rdquo; he added.&nbsp;</p>

<p>United&rsquo;s 14 league defeats this season are their joint highest in a single <a href="https://mid-day.com/sports/football/article/virgil-win-dijk-23519050" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"><strong>Premier League</strong></a> campaign. They last suffered more losses in a top-flight season in 1989-90, when they came 13th, United are languishing in 14th place as they try to avoid their lowest finish since being relegated in 21st place in 1973-74.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&ldquo;I understand it, but I don&rsquo;t care,&rdquo; Amorim said of criticism of his turbulent reign. &ldquo;Nothing is worse than losing games. People can say whatever they want to say. &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t want to defend myself or anything like that, because if you look at our position in the table, it says it all. So let&rsquo;s move on.</p>
<p>The Red Devils&rsquo; captain Bruno Fernandes conceded his team are missing the fighting spirit and consistency required to thrive in the Premier League. &ldquo;We are in this position because we have not been consistent. We lack being more fearless, being more brave.&rdquo; he said.&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>14</strong><br />No. of EPL losses for Man Utd in &rsquo;24-25, second time in the club&rsquo;s history</p>
