Rewritten Article:

Striking a blow at the heart of Manchester, Spanish international Marc Cucurella thumped in a goal to give Chelsea a 1-0 victory over United, marking their third straight Premier League defeat under the management of Ruben Amorim.

The decisive strike came when Cucurella took advantage of a sweet pass from Reece James, slamming it past the United goalkeeper in an instant to secure the win for Chelsea.

For a thorough breakdown of the situation, take a look at this read: "Ruben Amorim could be tasting the bitter taste of embarrassment. United falls before the European final"

Ruben Amorim, a 37-year-old Portuguese football manager, has been steering the ship at United since taking the helm. Born and raised in Lisbon, Portugal, Amorim is a former midfielder who has made his mark in the management scene. However, his time at United has been riddled with challenges.

Amorim's tenure with United has seen the club tread through 25 games with a mere 24% win rate and an average of 0.96 points per game, making him one of the weaker 'big six' managers in Premier League history when it comes to these metrics[2].

Currently, United sits in the 16th spot on the Premier League leaderboard, a position that speaks volumes about the team's performance under Amorim. Despite the team's struggles, Amorim insists on fostering cultural changes within the club rather than simply relying on new signings[1]. He is dedicated to adapting the team to his preferred 3-4-2-1 formation while ironing out any nagging issues within the squad[1].

The saga of Amorim and United's partnership is still very much a work in progress. Time will only tell how the team rebounds from this recent string of losses and whether Amorim can lead them to a brighter future.

What could be next for struggling United under Ruben Amorim, as they continue to battle in European leagues and the Premier League? Could a change in strategy or new signings help improve their dismal win rate and move them up the Premier League leaderboard?
