'Apologising is not enough!' - Amad Diallo sends message to distraught Man Utd fans after horror end to terrible 2024

Premier League

Manchester United

Brighton

<p>2024 was a rollercoaster for the Red Devils. Despite clinching the FA Cup, the overall performance of the team has left much to be desired. Their league form has been a source of great disappointment, with the team finishing eighth in the Premier League last season and now languishing at the 14th spot despite a change of guard in the dugout with Erik ten Hag making way for Ruben Amorim. The calendar year ended on a particularly sour note with a <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/relegation-form-man-utd-sent-dire-warning-ruben-amorim-told-picked-wrong-team-defeat-newcastle/blt3077773c9603d48d" target="_blank">2-0 defeat to Newcastle </a>at Old Trafford, marking their fourth consecutive loss.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>While the team has struggled, Amad has emerged as one of the few players to earn praise for his performances. His standout moment came during the Manchester derby, where his efforts played a key role in United securing their only win in their last six Premier League games. The Ivorian winger has netted five goals this season, a respectable return given the team’s broader struggles. Despite his contributions, United find themselves perilously close to a relegation battle. Currently seven points above the bottom three, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/relegation-a-possibility-ruben-amorim-man-utd-defeat-newcastle-club-needs-shock/blt55b30cbbfbbab8d7" target="_blank">Amorim has openly admitted that relegation is a real possibility</a> if the team’s downward spiral continues.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Following the loss to Newcastle, Amad took to social media to address the frustrated United fanbase. Posting on X, the 21-year-old shared his heartfelt thoughts and wrote: "A very difficult year, apologizing is not enough...but you have supported us and continued to do so throughout all this time...thank you…"</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">a very difficult year, apologizing is not enough... <br><br>but you have supported us and continued to do so throughout all this time... <br><br>thank you… <a href="https://t.co/JxMoUnsDsj">pic.twitter.com/JxMoUnsDsj</a></p>— Amad (@Amaddiallo_19) <a href="https://twitter.com/Amaddiallo_19/status/1874064773450785123?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 31, 2024</a></blockquote>

WHAT AMAD SAID

<p>The start of 2025 presents United with a daunting challenge as they travel to Anfield to face Liverpool. Currently one of the most formidable teams in world football, Liverpool will undoubtedly test Amorim’s struggling side. However, for Amorim, the match offers an opportunity to turn the page on a difficult spell and set a positive tone for the months ahead.</p>
