Maguire criticized Manchester United s performance this season: creating the second worst record in history, disappointing fans

Manchester United player Harry Maguire admitted that the troubled team performed "far from good enough" this season. The Red Devils, who are about to play against Tottenham in the UEFA Cup final, are trying to save the season by winning the championship. Manchester United will face Tottenham Hotspur in Bilbao on Wednesday, hoping to win the first trophy for Ruben Amorin's coaching. But Amorin's team is currently only ranked 16th in the Premier League, and with one round left in the league, it is destined to usher in the worst record since the club's relegation in the 1973/74 season.

The English central defender knows that such results are unacceptable for a giant club like Manchester United. "As players, we have to be responsible for the Premier League rankings. The income we bring in the league is far from the standards that the club should have. " he said.

"It shouldn't have been like this. Two months ago we should have been in a better position to compete for the UEFA Cup or even the Champions League qualification. "At present, Manchester United is still 27 points away from ensuring the top five Premier League qualifications. But if they can win the UEFA Cup, they can still secure a place in the Champions League next season.

This is undoubtedly a shot of a heart-warming shot for Amorim, who suffered consecutive defeats in the Premier League in his debut season. The journey to hit the sixth European trophy in the team's history has become the last comfort for the Red Devils fans this season - despite the team's struggles, the fans still firmly support the young coach.

"We have disappointed the fans too many times. Although the European journey has given them good memories, such as winning the Manchester City Derby at Etihad, overall... "Maguire sighed, "Even I was surprised by their loyalty. They are great fans, and they proved it again this year. "

"We are full of confidence in ourselves. We must make sure to go all out and achieve the best performance on the final day. "Maguire, now 32, has personal motivation: the pain of missing out on the 2021 Europa League final is still unforgettable.

"Missing that game made me feel like a slash. I was the captain and an important member of the team at that time. " he recalled, "If I could play, the result might be different - at least that's what I think. "
