Ruben Amorim believes there is a \u201cfeeling of entitlement\u201d at Manchester United amid supposed dissent from younger players.<\/p>\n Chido Obi and Harry Amass have recently posted images on social media \u2013 both since deleted \u2013 highlighting achievements away from Old Trafford.<\/p>\n That came on the back of Amorim suggesting the pair are not doing well enough to justify being in the first-team picture at United.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, academy graduate Kobbie Mainoo\u2019s half-brother wore a \u2018Free Kobbie Mainoo\u2019 T-shirt at Old Trafford ahead of Monday\u2019s 4-4 draw with Bournemouth.<\/p>\n Asked at Friday\u2019s pre-match press conference specifically about Chido and Amass, Amorim said: \u201cI think it is the feeling of entitlement that we have in our club.<\/p>\n \u201cSometimes strong words aren\u2019t bad words. Sometimes difficult moments aren\u2019t a bad thing for the kids. We don\u2019t need to be always with accolades in everything, in every situation.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are not helping. That is why [the media] talk about a lot of players; nowadays, they speak and go against the club because they feel entitlement.<\/p>\n \u201cSometimes I am the first to say that I am failing this club on the pitch, that I have that feeling we are not performing the way we should.<\/p>\n \u201cBut outside the pitch, I guarantee you I am not failing this club. I think it is something in our club. The players sometimes forget what it means to play for Manchester United.<\/p>\n \u201cWe as a club sometimes forget who we are and that is the feeling I have. I understand everything.<\/p>\n \u201cIt is the environment of the players, the kids \u2013 they feel free to reply to the manager with a picture. The door to my office is open.<\/p>\n \u201cNobody is coming to talk to me and that is the way we can solve things, so I think we need to change as a club.\u201d<\/p>\n Checking in at Carrington pic.twitter.com\/R2z2ss4QCb<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Manchester United (@ManUtd) December 19, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Mainoo has struggled to get much of a look-in under Amorim, with all 11 of the youngster\u2019s Premier League appearances this season coming from the substitutes\u2019 bench.<\/p>\n A number of former United players, including Paul Scholes and Rio Ferdinand, have questioned whether Mainoo would be better off elsewhere to further his career.<\/p>\n However, Amorim insists it is down to the players not featuring to prove they deserve more regular action.<\/p>\n Asked about Mainoo\u2019s brother\u2019s shirt antics this week, Amorim replied: \u201cIt was not Kobbie that wore the T-shirt.<\/p>\n \u201cHe is not going to start because of the T-shirt or go to the bench because of it. He is going to play if he is the right player to play.<\/p>\n \u201cI am not going to do something to Kobbie because someone in his family is doing something.<\/p>\n \u201cWe have legends of the club saying if you don\u2019t play, leave, because everyone is wrong. No, let\u2019s stay, let\u2019s fight, let\u2019s overcome.\u201d<\/p>\n How the Premier League table has changed weekly so far this season\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/sUmSrMxJ9x<\/a><\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.soccernews.com\/wp-content\/themes\/SN\/images\/300x250_HR.gif\")
