Amorim's future as Man Utd boss in serious jeopardy after outburst

Ruben Amorim’s future as Manchester United manager is said to be in serious jeopardy, with the Portuguese tactician having seemingly taken a leaf out of Enzo Maresca’s book.

Ruben Amorim has been branded as "useless" and told to "f*ck off" out of Manchester United by one of Paul Scholes' sons after the Portuguese's criticism of the club's board. The 40-year-old coach appeared to take aim at the Red Devils' hierarchy in the wake of his side's draw with Leeds United on Sunday, insisting that he was the "manager and not the coach" of the Premier League side.

Sesko 'completely different' to Hojlund, says Amorim

Ruben Amorim has challenged Benjamin Sesko to be more clinical in front of goal, while stating that he is a "completely different" striker to Napoli loanee Rasmus Hojlund. Manchester United spent £74 million ($100m) on the Slovenia international last summer and sent his Danish counterpart to join Antonio Conte's Serie A holders. And after seeing Sesko fail to fire against Leeds United, Amorim has laid down the gauntlet for the 22-year-old.

GOAL's seven bold predictions for the second half of the season

We reached the midway point of the Premier League season on Thursday night, with Arsenal holding a very promising four-point advantage at the top of the table as the Gunners look to end an agonising, 22-year title drought, and their chances of doing so have only increased after Saturday's hard-fought win at Bournemouth. Of course, Manchester City are very dangerous chasers - as Arsenal know to their considerable cost - and Aston Villa will obviously be hoping to stay in touch even after their chastening 4-1 defeat at the Emirates on Tuesday.

Amorim snipes back at question over formation change of heart

Ruben Amorim had a tetchy exchange with a reporter as he refused to explain why he is veering from the 3-4-3 formation he wanted to build his Manchester United side around. The Portuguese was asked three times during Friday's press conference before facing Leeds what he had meant with previous comments about his change of heart. But each time he shied away from giving an answer.

Hojlund reborn! How Conte got Man Utd misfit firing for Napoli

After Napoli beat Bologna on December 22 to win the Supercoppa Italiana, Rasmus Hojlund posted a picture of him holding the trophy, accompanied by the words, "What a great decision looks like." Unsurprisingly, some Manchester United fans didn't react well to the perceived slight on their club. One comment on Hojlund's Instagram photo with more than 14,000 likes sarcastically congratulated the Dane for finding his 'level' before adding, "[The] Premier League is too difficult for amateurs."

Former Manchester United defender and Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville has launched an explosive takedown of Ruben Amorim following Tuesday's 1-1 draw with rock-bottom Wolves, questioning his decision to substitute goalscorer Joshua Zirkzee at half-time.

Amorim makes brutal admission after Man Utd fail to beat winless Wolves

Ruben Amorim admitted that Manchester United played with a different kind of energy during their dreadful 1-1 draw at home to Wolves.

As a Manchester local, he admits that his frustration stems not from nostalgia alone, but from a belief that the club has lost its sense of identity.
