When Manchester United sacked Erik ten Hag in October, they were 14th in the Premier League table and seven points from both the top four and the bottom three.
當曼聯去年十月解僱了滕哈赫時，他們位居英超榜上第14名，距離歐冠區與降級區都只有七分之差。

魯本阿莫林在十一月被欽定為曼聯主帥
Fast forward three and a half months and the club are 15th, 15 points from the top four and 12 points above the relegation zone after suffering a 1-0 defeat by Tottenham - the eighth league defeat under new manager Ruben Amorim.
時間快轉三個半月，這支球隊來到了第十五名，距離前四名已有了15分之差，並且在吃了1-0被熱刺打敗—新帥魯本阿莫林來曼聯後再聯賽吃到的第八場敗仗—的失利後，距離降級區只有12分。
There has been no 'new manager bounce' with Portuguese coach Amorim saying he has "a lot of problems" and his job is "so hard".
對於葡萄牙籍主帥阿莫林而言，可沒有什麼「新帥蜜月期」，他表示他有一堆待解決的問題，並且他的工作「很難」。
It is no secret that United are enduring a historically poor Premier League campaign but just how large are the problems facing Amorim?
曼聯正在寫下歷史級差勁的英超賽季已是公然的秘密，但阿莫林面對的難題究竟有多龐大？
The worst United team in Premier League history
曼聯英超歷史最差賽季
Amorim may have jumped the gun when he described this side as "the worst team maybe in the history of Manchester United" in January.
阿莫林在一月時，敘述他的站邊「也是是曼聯史上最差勁的陣容了」是有點操之過急了。
After all, the club were relegated from the first division in 1974.
再怎麼說，球隊在1974年從頂級比賽降級過。
But in the Premier League era, they are the worst statistically at this stage of a season.
但在英超世代，他們有著在賽季計算至今來說最差的狀態。
- United's tally of 29 points from 25 matches is their lowest at this stage of a Premier League season 曼聯在25場比賽總共拿下29分，這是他們在英超賽場上拿過最低的分數。
- United have lost 12 times in 25 matches, a loss rate of 48%. 25場比賽曼聯輸了12場，敗率達48%
- The club are averaging 1.16 points-per-game, which, if continued, would give them an end-of-season points tally of 44 points from 38 matches. That would be their lowest Premier League points tally. 球隊每場比賽平均拿到1.16分，如果一直這樣下去，賽季末他們將會從38場比賽中拿到44分。這會是縱觀英超他們拿過的最低積分。
- United have won four, drawn two and lost eight of Amorim's 14 Premier League matches. 阿莫林的十四場英超比賽，曼聯贏了四場、平手兩場、輸了八場。
- Only Tottenham, Wolves, Ipswich, Leicester and Southampton have earned fewer points than United's 14 in their 14 Premier League matches under Amorim. 只有熱刺、狼隊、伊普斯維奇鎮、萊斯特城與南安普頓比阿莫林領軍曼聯的14場比賽時期拿的積分要少。
Amorim has managed 21 matches since joining United. He has won nine, drawn three and lost nine of those matches, giving him a win rate of 43%.
阿莫林加入曼聯以來，執教了21場比賽。那些比賽中他贏了九場、平手三場、輸了九場，給了他43%的總勝率。
That is the lowest of any permanent Manchester United manager since Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement in 2013 over their first 21 matches in charge, with Louis van Gaal (48%) the next lowest.
那是自亞歷山大佛格森爵士2013年退役以來，負責過前21場，最低勝率的常任主帥，並且由路易斯范加爾以48%的勝率排名次低。
Jose Mourinho (52%), David Moyes (57%), Erik ten Hag (67%) and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (71%) all had significantly better records in all competitions from their first 21 matches in charge.
在各項賽事負責前21場來說，何塞穆里尼奧(52%)、大衛莫耶斯(57%)、艾瑞克滕哈赫(67%)、奧萊·貢納·索爾斯克亞(71%)都有著顯而易見的較佳紀錄。
Problems in front of goal 眾關擋在進球前
Of all of United's problems under Amorim, their inability to score enough goals is the most glaring.
阿莫林面對的曼聯問題，最顯而易見的是他們沒有能力打入夠多的進球。
A deeper look at the numbers does not make for happy reading.
更深一層地看，進球的數字恐怕沒辦法笑著看完。
- United have scored 28 goals in 25 Premier League matches this season - a rate of 1.12 goals-per-game. 曼聯這一季在25場英超比賽打進了28顆進球——每場比賽1.12顆進球的轉化。
- Only four teams in the division - Ipswich, Southampton, Leicester and Everton - have scored fewer. 該層級只有伊普斯維奇鎮、南安普頓、萊斯特城、艾佛頓四支球隊進得更少。
- Amad Diallo, who has been ruled out of the remainder of the season with an ankle injury, is the side's top scorer in the Premier League (six) and all competitions (nine), while centre forwards Rasmus Hojlund (two) and Joshua Zirzkee (three) have managed just five goals in 45 Premier League appearances between them. 因為腳踝傷病而在餘下賽季被移出選項的阿瑪德迪亞洛，是曼聯方的聯賽進球王(6顆)與各項賽事進球王(9顆）；同時中鋒拉斯馬斯霍伊倫(2顆)與約書亞齊克爾澤(3顆)兩人在45場英超出賽只打入了五顆進球。
- In 14 matches under Ten Hag this season, United's Expected-Goals-per-game (xG) was 1.7. This has fallen slightly under Amorim, with United's xG 1.6-per-game since he took charge. 本賽季滕哈赫治下的14場比賽，曼聯的每場期望進球(xG)是1.7顆。在阿莫林就任後，期望進球微幅下降到1.6顆。
- United's 'big chances' created record is identical under Ten Hag and Amorim this season, with the side creating 2.9 big chances each match. 曼聯本賽季創造「絕佳機會」的記錄在滕哈赫跟阿莫林治下是持平的，每場比賽有2.9次的絕佳機會。
- Despite United's struggles, captain Bruno Fernandes is fourth highest for chances created in the league (53). Cole Palmer (66) is top. 儘管身陷曼聯泥淖中，隊長布魯諾費爾南德斯是全聯賽第四高的機會創造者(53次)，寇爾帕爾默(66次)位居第一。
United finished last season with a goal difference of -1, this the first time they had ended a Premier League campaign with a negative goal difference. However, they are on course to eclipse that with a -7 goal difference this term.
曼聯上賽季以-1的淨勝球作收，是此隊英超賽季史上第一次以負數淨勝球收尾。然而，這一期的賽季，正在以-7的淨勝球數蠶食著球隊。
Similarly, while the 57 goals they scored during the 2023-24 campaign was their joint-lowest in the Premier League, they are on course to score fewer this season. If they maintain their rate of 1.12 goals per game, they would finish with 44 scored.
無獨有偶，同時2023-24賽季57顆總進球是他們在英超歷史上並列最低的進球數，這一季他們則正走在更低的路上。如果他們維持著每場比賽1.12顆進球的轉化率，他們將會以44顆進球結束聯賽。
Mounting injury problems 堆積如山的傷病問題
During the early weeks of Amorim's reign, the former Sporting boss bemoaned the lack of time he had been to spend with his players on the training ground.
阿莫林上位前幾週，這位前葡萄牙體育總帥就曾因為缺少跟球員們在訓練場上相處的時間而哀嘆。
However with a less packed schedule with qualification for the Europa League knockout stages assured and a Carabao Cup exit at Tottenham's hands, Amorim has been able to spend more time on the training ground.
然而，在歐霸聯賽淘汰賽席位的保證，帶來負載較少的賽程，與聯賽被托特納姆熱刺送出去後，阿莫林將有辦法在訓練場上花上更多時間。
But a "free week" before Sunday's trip to Tottenham proved anything but productive.
但在週日前往迎戰熱刺前的「空閒的一週」後，卻是萬事皆證，只差效果。
Between the 2-1 win against Leicester City in the FA Cup on 7 February and Sunday's loss to Spurs, United lost six players.
在2月7號2-1足總盃擊敗萊斯特城，與週日熱刺之役的失利之間，曼聯少了六名球員。
Diallo, Kobbie Mainoo, Manuel Ugarte and Toby Collyer were ruled out of the trip through injury, while Leny Yoro and Christian Eriksen fell ill.
迪亞洛、科比曼努、曼努埃爾烏加特與托比科利爾因為受傷而無法前往客戰征途，同時列尼約羅與克里斯坦艾利克森也傷病了。
Their absences added to the long-term casualties of Luke Shaw, Mason Mount, Lisandro Martinez and Jonny Evans.
他們的缺席，再被加入了長期的傷病名單，包括盧克肖、梅森芒特、里薩多馬丁尼茲、強尼伊凡斯在列。
It meant Amorim was forced to name an inexperienced bench against Spurs of with Victor Lindelof joined by Elyh Harrison, Harry Amass, Tyler Fredricson, Jack Fletcher, Jack Moorhouse, Chido Obi, Ayden Heaven and Sekou Kone.
這意味著阿莫林被迫要提出由維克多林德洛夫為首，加上伊萊哈里森、哈利阿馬斯、泰勒佛萊德里克森、傑克佛萊徹、傑克摩爾豪斯、齊度歐比、埃登海芬與瑟克寇內這樣經驗不足的板凳球員對抗熱刺。
Sweden defender Lindelof was the only one of those to have previously played for the first team.
瑞典防守球員林德洛夫，是當中唯一一個先前上過一線隊的球員。
January transfer window regrets 一月轉會窗鑄成大悔
Manchester United made two signings in the January window, bringing in Patrick Dorgu from Italian club Lecce and defender Ayden Heaven from Arsenal but squad was thinner by the end of the window than when it started as Marcus Rashford, Antony and Tyrell Malacia departed on loan.
曼聯在一月完成了兩筆簽約，從義大利球隊萊切簽下了派翠克多古、還有從阿森納簽下埃登海芬，但在轉會窗結束時，陣容因為馬庫斯拉施福德、安東尼與泰羅爾馬拉西亞的租借而比轉會窗開啟前更加薄弱。
Dorgu, a multi-functional left-footed Denmark international, should provide balance at wing-back to Amorim's 3-4-3 system.
多古，一位丹麥國際級的多功能左腳球員，應當要在阿莫林的3-4-3體系中提供邊衛位的兩端平衡。
But the decision to allow both Antony and Rashford to leave without signing a replacement looked risky at the time and is proving so now.
但對安東尼、拉施福德的離開都開綠燈，並且沒有簽下任何一個替代方案，當時看起來很有風險，而此時此刻球隊正以窘境證明此節。
Their departures left Hojlund, Zirzkee, Diallo and Alejandro Garnacho as the side's only recognised forwards. That list is down to three now, given Diallo's season-ending injury.
霍伊倫、齊克爾澤、迪亞洛、亞歷山大加納喬是曼聯方僅有認得出來的前場。在迪亞洛賽季報銷的傷情後，這個名單僅剩下了三個人。
Garnacho has no Premier League goals or assists since Amorim joined.
自阿莫林加入後，加納喬在英超聯賽沒有任何進球與助攻。
Rashford has made two eye-catching substitute appearances for Aston Villa since moving to Birmingham, and he played a hand in Ollie Watkins' equaliser against Ipswich on Saturday.
拉施福德在搬到伯明罕城之後，為阿斯頓維拉打出了兩場奪目的替補出陣，並且他在週六對抗伊普斯維奇鎮，歐萊瓦特金斯的追平球上，施展了傑出的一手。
As for Antony, the Brazilian has scored three times in four matches for Real Betis since moving to Spain. This matches the tally he managed during 38 appearances for United last season and means he has scored more so far in February than United have.
而講到安東尼，搬到西班牙後，這個巴西人為皇家貝提斯四場比賽打出了三次得分。這個數字已經跟他上一季為曼聯效力的38次上場相同，同時意味著截至目前為止，他二月的進球已經超過了曼聯整隊。
