The Manchester United manager is enduring a tough start to life at Old Trafford and lost again last weekend, but few feel the Portuguese is to blame for the club's ongoing struggles.

Manchester United delivered the result that Ruben Amorim had demanded as they beat FCSB 2-0 to qualify for the Europa League last 16 stage. Already guaranteed a play-off place at the minimum, the United boss had urged his side to finish the job in Bucharest by sealing a top eight finish and watched his side do just that thanks to a much improved second half performance.
