After Ruben Amorim said he is in charge of perhaps the worst Manchester United team in history, Premier League legend Alan Shearer backed up the Portuguese boss' damning verdict

After Manchester United's latest humiliation, Ruben Amorim has been told why his team have regressed since he replaced Erik ten Hag.

Tyrell Malacia is set to leave Manchester United in the January transfer window after Ruben Amorim sanctioned his departure. The defender joined United from Feyenoord in 2022 in a £13million deal, becoming Erik ten Hag’s first signing for the club.

Erik ten Hag has been tipped to take a surprise new job after being sacked as Manchester United manager. Ten Hag left his post as United manager in October after a poor start to the 2023/24 season.

The Cameroonian was everywhere and bullied the United midfield of Kobbie Mainoo and the Roy Keane-like Manuel Ugarte for the majority of whilst they were on the pitch.

Former Manchester United boss and Arsenal legend Thierry Henry have emerged as targets for the same managerial job. Ten Hag is out of work following his Man United dismissal last year while Henry is also not contracted after leading France to a silver medal at the 2024 Olympics.

Former Premier League striker Alan Shearer has issued a scathing comparison between Rúben Amorim and Erik ten Hag’s respective Manchester United squads.

Erik ten Hag fell short in multiple departments in the build-up to his inevitable sacking as Manchester United manager in October. The primary dispute over the decision was that it hadn't come months earlier when the writing was already on the wall before May's shock FA Cup triumph.

Erik ten Hag has frequently visited Borussia Dortmund since being sacked as Manchester United manager - but the Bundesliga giants have no current plans to replace Nuri Sahin, reports in Germany claim.

Erik ten Hag lost both of his home Premier League games as Manchester United boss against Brighton and Hove Albion. The Seagulls have found a winning formula at Old Trafford and Ruben Amorim was looking to bring that to an end.

Ugarte was actually Erik ten Hag's third-choice midfield signing, and despite struggling to force his way into Ten Hag's plans after his arrival from PSG at the end of August, the midfielder was informed by the former United manager that he would help United with their 'fight'.
