The Portuguese tactician claims that sometimes he feels like quitting whenever they don't win matches.

"Sometimes I want to quit, sometimes I want to be here for 20 years," Amorim said, as per Sky Sports.

"Sometimes I love to be with my players. Sometimes I don't want to be with my players. I need to improve on that. It is going to be hard."

He continued, "I know that when I speak these things, to be really honest, every time that we have a defeat like that, I will be like that.

"Sometimes I hate my players, sometimes I love my players - this is my way of doing things. I am going to be like that. In that moment, I was so frustrated.

"You have experienced people talking about the way I should perform with the media, to be more calm. I am not going to be like that.

"I am trying to accept that and I am going to be who I am, that's why I have the passion I have. In that moment I was disappointed. We had a good pre-season and were playing better.

"That kind of performance, I was really disappointed with everything. But now it is a new game."
