Ruben Amorim has admitted his first few months at Manchester United have been the most intense of his career but also "the most special."

Carlton Cole says Sir Jim Ratcliffe needs to tell Ruben Amorim to ‘shut his mouth’ as he is ‘killing’ Marcus Rashford and his price tag by incessantly criticising the forward in public. Rashford revealed that he was seeking a ‘new challenge’ away from Old Trafford after being left out of last month’s Manchester derby and the attacker’s future has been the subject of intense speculation this January.

Ruben Amorim knows he must improve Manchester United’s situation in the Premier League, as sitting in 12th place is unacceptable for a club of the Red Devils' stature. He is already planning some changes.
