LOOKING GRIM FOR AMORIM

Ruben's at point of no return as he heads for Ten Hag-style exit

DURING Manchester United's summer tour of the US, Ruben Amorim freely admitted he had used up any credit he had in the bank last season.

Despite leading United to 15th place, their worst Premier League finish, and losing the Europa League final to Tottenham to miss out on Europe, Amorim retained the backing of the United hierarchy and the club's fans. Against that backdrop, the Red Devils boss knew he could not afford a poor start to this season.

But four points from four games and a chastening 3-0 defeat at Manchester City in Sunday's derby (below, right) has added credence to the growing belief that his time at Old Trafford may soon be up.
