REUTERS LISBON — Ruben Amorim insisted that Sporting Lisbon's stunning 4-1 rout of Manchester City in the Champions League does not guarantee he will be able to make an immediate impact at Manchester United. Sporting manager Amorim has accepted United's offer to replace Erik ten Hag, and will officially take charge of the troubled Premier League club on Nov 11. Amorim took a long lap of honor after his perfect farewell victory and Gyokeres is in no doubt about his departing manager's qualities "Of course we will miss him a lot, we have done amazing things together," Gyokeres said of Amorim.
