Why Man United fans should not expect a quick fix when Ruben Amorim arrives at a club addicted to making mistakes, writes OLIVER HOLT

Daily Mail  

I like the guy who works the gate at the car park near Old Trafford. Manchester United sacked Erik ten Hag last week following the side's poor start to the campaign and dismal league form last term The Dutchman left the side languishing in 14th place in the league and without a win in Europe in more than 12 months To watch United against Chelsea on Sunday was to watch a team that played with a veneer of spirit and a flash or two of panache but whose surface conceals a core of emptiness and complacency and mystifying entitlement. Ruben Amorim will begin duties as United boss on November 11 after leading Sporting in matches this week, including against Man City in the Champions League Last week, I had a conversation with a former England international about the task that the new manager faces. We played every football fan’s favourite game of arguing about how many of the United squad assembled by Ten Hag would get into the starting XI of any of the so-called 'Big Six' clubs. Fenerbahce manager Jose Mourinho launches an incredible tirade against the Turkish Super Lig following his side's win over Trabzonspor on Sunday Maybe it’s just me but doesn’t Mourinho allege wider impropriety wherever he goes?
