🗣️ Amorim:

I am never concerned about my job - I am not that kind of guy.

It is not my decision. I will do the best I can every minute I am here.

🇳🇱🗣️ Matthijs de Ligt on the loss to Brentford:

I mean, it's always easy to look to the manager, but in the end, the players on the pitch have to do it. We can't say the goals we conceded, or the chances we conceded, are because of what... I don't know, you guys always talk about the system.

"That also has a lot to do with focus, concentration, and if that's lacking in key moments, it's going to make a difference. Against a Brentford team who plays like this, they will kill you.

❗️ The suggestion of a shortlist of replacements for Amorim has been dismissed by United officials, who are adamant no one is being lined up to replace the current manager.

However, speculation will continue, which will increase the strain on Amoirm.

🛑 Sources suggest Sir Jim Ratcliffe is backing Amorim, and feels it is only fair to judge him on a full season with what he views as the right team.

Too early to judge Ruben Amorim? 🤔

🗣️ Gary Neville on Ruben Amorim's Manchester United future:

The performances and the results are just unacceptable.

👀 Said for a while now under the INEOS regime, there’s people on that board that rate Southgate.

If Amorim goes I really wouldn’t be surprised.

🛑 Ruben Amorim is described as a "lonely man" by club sources. In training he often walks away from the team, & after losses he sits on his own & doesn't speak to anyone. The job has broken him and he looks a ghost of his former self from first joining.

🗣️ Wayne Rooney on Man United’s current situation:

This is NOT Man Utd. I don’t recognise the whole football club.

I don’t see players fighting, I don’t see character, I don’t see desire to win, I don’t see ability, I don’t see match-winners, NOTHING gets me off my feet.

I care for the club, I was at the football club for 13 years & what is going on is NOT right. This is not all on the manager by the way. I’m seeing players not deserving to wear that shirt and it HURTS.

I think there needs to be a CLEAR message from the owners whether thats the Glazers’ or Sir Jim Ratcliffe. There HAS to be a message of where this club is going at the minute because we’re all sitting here waiting for it to crumble.

🛑 Al-Ittihad has shown interest in Xavi after dismissing Lauren Blanc. However, the Catalan coach does not consider this possibility.

Xavi wants to return to coaching a top-level club and has been mentioned as a possible replacement for Ruben Amorim at Man United.

💭 Oliver Glasner on Man Utd links:

I follow all the rumours – and that’s all there is – neutrally and completely relaxed. Focusing on the daily work with my players and coaches, and trying to enjoy it as much as possible.

🗣️ Deco on Rashford deal with Man United:

We signed Marcus on a simple loan with an option to buy. It’s not an high fee.

There are no penalties if we do not sign him permanently. He’s doing great, we are very happy… the final decisions come later

@manchester 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

‼️ If Amorim doesn't survive, Man Utd would prefer someone with experience of English football.
