It has left United in turmoil and now Amorim has made some shocking admissions in his first press conference since that loss. Speaking on Friday, he spoke of his emotional reactions to bad situations after cryptic comments about his squad. Amorim said: “Sometimes I want to quit. Sometimes I want to be here for 20 years, sometimes I love to be with my players, sometimes I don’t want to be with them. “So, again, I need to improve on that! I know that when I speak these things. “To be really honest with you guys, every time that we have or have in the future one defeat like that, I’m going to be like that. “I’m going to say that sometimes I hate my players, sometimes I love my players, sometimes I want to defend my players. This is my way of doing things and I’m going to be like that. “I felt that in that moment, I was so frustrated and annoyed. “And I know, again, that you have a lot of experienced people talking about the way I should perform with the media, to be more constant, to be more calm. I’m not going to be like that.” Amorim has admitted that he sometimes hates his players and wants to quit at timesGetty What else did Amorim say? Amorim also opened up on the current situation with Kobbie Mainoo after news broke of the midfielder considering leaving. Mainoo has not featured at all this season so far and he wants a loan move away to find some more game time. But it appears that Man United will be blocking that from happening, as the manager gave a fresh update. “Until it is official, I cannot say much,” Amorim said. “I want Kobbie to stay. He needs to fight for his place. “We need Kobbie. I understand that the players who aren’t playing in this moment are disappointed. You have to fight during the week.” Amorim has given an update on Mainoo’s future at Old TraffordGetty And on his future, Amorim discussed whether he still thinks somebody else should take his place after comments last season. He said: “I felt that after the game. I don’t feel that now. “So it’s a little bit like that. I think that is the hardest part of the defeat. “Sometimes it’s not the result, it’s the way we lost that game or draw that game. That is the thing that is hard to accept. “Because we can do better. In this moment, we cover positions, fight for the ball, running, all these small things, sometimes we drop a little bit the level. “The good thing is that we now have the next game to put that level up.” Premier League Match Odds with talkSPORT BET Sat, 30th August Chelsea 8/15 – Draw 16/5 – Fulham 19/4 Man Utd 1/3 – Draw 17/4 – Burnley 8/1 Sunderland 19/10 – Draw 23/10 – Brentford 29/20 Spurs 7/10 – Draw 31/10 – Bournemouth 17/5 Wolves 17/10 – Draw 11/5 – Everton 17/10 Sun, 31st August Brighton 27/10 – Draw 14/5 – Man City 17/20 Notts Forest 13/20 – Draw 27/10 – West Ham 4/1 Liverpool 23/20 – Draw 5/2 – Arsenal 21/10 Aston Villa 5/6 – Draw 5/2 – Crystal Palace 31/10 See all Premier League match odds over at talkSPORT BET *odds subject to change, 18+ gambleaware.org Offer of the Week talkSPORT BET – Bet on £10 and get £30 in football free bets* CLAIM HERE 18+ New customers only.
