Former Man United striker Wayne Rooney has advised the Red Devils to sack Ruben Amorim as Manager of the club.
The Red Devils suffered their fourth defeat of the campaign against Brentford on Saturday, going down 3-1 to the Bees, with the result leaving the 20-time English champions down in 14th spot in the Premier League table.
Amorim’s future is again being called into question due to the club’s struggles this season, with only seven points being gained from the team’s opening six matches of the campaign.
Speaking on his personal podcast, the former Everton star stated that he doesn’t see the Portuguese tactician as the right man for the job.

“I have tried my hand in management and it didn’t work out too well, I get it. Ruben Amorim is my age, he is still a young manager and I’m sure he still has a massive future, but what’s going on at Man Utd, this is not Man Utd. I honestly hope he can turn it round and he does. But if you’re saying to me, ‘do you believe he will?’, then, after everything I’ve seen, honestly, I’ve got no faith in it.
“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 go to a game watching, expecting, here we go again – expecting the team to lose or maybe pick up a point.
“It’s not even just results on the pitch. It’s everything about the club that needs fixing – Jim Ratcliffe and Ineos have walked into a real challenge.
“We’re seeing staff members getting sacked after 20, 30 years who are very important people to that football club. The soul has gone from the club. It needs a new engine, a new lease of life. It needs something to kickstart that football club.”
