Despite Amorim’s first encounter with assembled media being a pre-match press conference, nobody asked about Sunday’s opponents Ipswich

New Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim says that while journalists and pundits may not think it is possible for the Red Devils to win the Premier League title under him in the future, he has full belief in himself,

Speaking to Gary Neville, the 39-year-old described how difficult it was to leave Sporting Lisbon in the middle of the season but maintained that the moment was “perfect” for him. Amorim is United’s sixth permanent manager since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in 2013 having masterminded the club’s 20th top-flight title.
