Ruben Amorim is no stranger to tough starts. After losing his opening two games in charge of Casa Pia in Portugal's fourth tier, the freshly retired midfielder publicly declared that he would quit if he suffered a third straight reverse.

Ruben Amorim says Man Utd ‘just have to survive’ as they try to turn tide - United suffered a fifth loss in seven games, going down 2-0 at Wolves.

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim is fully aware that his job will be in “danger” if results under him don’t improve. Defeat away at Wolverhampton Wanderers on Boxing Day was a fourth in seven league games since the Portuguese took over from Erik ten Hag in November.
