Micah Richards believes Ruben Amorim hasn’t yet grasped how to handle the media pressures that comes with being Manchester United<\/a> manager.<\/p>\n

United’s start under Amorim continued to worsen as the Red Devils suffered a 1-0 defeat to Tottenham on Sunday<\/a> to slide down to 15th in the Premier League<\/a> table.<\/p>\n

Jamis Maddison’s first-half strike was the difference in an edgy encounter which condemned Amorim’s side to their 12th league defeat of the\u00a0season – their most in the top flight in 31 years.<\/p>\n

And with a slew of key first-team players unavailable due to injury,<\/a> the task for Amorim does not appear to be getting any easier as they prepare for a tough trip to Goodison Park at the weekend against an in-form Everton.<\/p>\n

After the game, the under-fire United boss pushed back against the suggestion that his job was under threat<\/a>, but conceded that it jobs remains ‘so hard’.<\/p>\n

And while Amorim’s style of play and tactical inflexibility have come in for criticism<\/a>, Richards believes that the United manager’s handling of the media is also not helping his cause.<\/p>\n

‘Some of the comments that he’s making, like when he said he’d rather play the goalkeeping coach instead of Rashford, or the toing and froing with Ange before the game, I just feel like he’s honest but in a naive way,’ Richards said on the Rest Is Football podcast.<\/a><\/p>\n

‘At first, I thought he had conviction but now I feel like he doesn’t understand the scrutiny of a Manchester United manager and everything he says.<\/p>\n

‘When he said this is the worst team in United history, whatever quotes he wants to use, what he doesn\u2019t understand is that\u2019s a headline every single week.<\/p>\n

‘If he doesn\u2019t like a player, if he doesn\u2019t like Rashford, that\u2019s his decision. We can accept that as pundits, that\u2019s your decision, we respect your decision.<\/p>\n
