Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has plunge his future in doubt ahead of their Europa League final against Tottenham Hotspur. While Spurs were toiling to a 2-0 defeat at home to Crystal Palace, the Reds suffered disappointment by a similar scoreline against fellow strugglers West Ham United.
The Portuguese tactician confessed that he may consider leaving his position in the Old Trafford hotseat, if they fail to heed their struggles. Amorim admitted that the struggles are his own fault after struggling to stop the rot and inspire a turnaround following his introduction as Erik ten Hag's successor.
At one stage on Sunday, United sat one place above the relegation zone and left them outside the bottom four.

Both United and will compete in the Europa League final in Bilbao with the winner securing their place in next season's Champions League.
"It's not the players' fault," Amorim admitted. "It's my fault, I'm responsible.
"If we cannot change that really fast, we should give our place to different persons." "I feel how a manager of Manchester United is supposed to feel in that position - embarrassed," he added.
"It’s hard to accept. We need to be more aggressive, and we need to feel that it is the end of the world when we are not winning a game.
"Especially when we are not winning. "So it's a big problem that we have here at the club.
"It's a decisive moment in the history of the club. "We need to address that. It's a big problem because it's mentally.
"We are not scared of losing a game as Manchester United. "We don't have that fear anymore and that is the most dangerous thing that a big club can have."
Postecoglou, meanwhile, gave his verdict on Spurs' defeat to Palace and his decision to ring the changes from the win at Bodo/Glimt on Thursday.
"Guys had an opportunity today to put their name forward and put some pressure on the guys who played the other night," he said. "Fair to say there wasn't any compelling evidence of that.
"That's what I'm trying to push with these guys, that sometimes in football you've just got to take the opportunities there before you. They're never going to be perfect.
"We made eight changes but there is an opportunity there and you've just got to take it when presented to you and I'm disappointed more didn't step forward today."
