The strangest part of the Ruben Amorim debate is that the only big name who has discussed sacking the Manchester United manager so far is Ruben Amorim himself, an admission he made seven days ago – which is a long time in United’s current life.

Porro spent three seasons with Manchester United head coach Amorim at Sporting Lisbon but faces him in Tottenham colours on Wednesday night.

Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Matheus Cunha, who is available for £62.5 million ($83 million), is on track to become the first signing of the summer. Amorim also wants a new striker, focusing his attention on Ipswich Town's Liam Delap.

Paul Scholes believes Ruben Amorim can learn from Mikel Arteta – insisting he would swap Manchester United ’s season for Arsenal’s ‘all day long’ even if they win the Europa League. The Gunners are heading towards another trophyless season after crashing out of the Champions League midweek, beaten 3-1 on aggregate by Paris Saint-Germain.

Amorim has endured a difficult start to life at Old Trafford but Beckham believes he is a "very good manager" who deserves support.
