TOXIC WASTE DUMP

Luke salutes Amorim's clean-up job at United

- DAVID McDONNELL

LUKE SHAW says Ruben Amorim's hardline stance on his players is what is needed to cure the 'toxic' atmosphere at Old Trafford and take Manchester United back to the top.

United ended last season in 15th place in the Premier League, their lowest finish for 51 years, and missed out on Europe after losing the Europa League final. Amorim has made it his mission to restore high standards on and off the pitch and axed a group of players from the club's US tour to underline his uncompromising approach.
