Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has broken ranks with his fellow club legends by naming Eddie Howe as the man he wants to see replace under-pressure manager Ruben Amorim at Old Trafford. Despite Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s backing for the Portuguese coach, speculation over Amorim’s future continues to swirl — and Scholes is convinced that Howe is “definitely” the right fit.
Manchester United legend Roy Keane has named a manager with a "big personality" who would "create havoc" as an ideal replacement for Ruben Amorim. The Portuguese tactician has won a paltry 29 per cent of his Premier League games since taking charge nearly a year ago, and though Sir Jim Ratcliffe insists he’ll be given time, fans aren’t buying it.

Paul Scholes believes Ruben Amorim is "getting too much time" at Manchester United and has predicted another defeat for his former club in their crunch clash with Liverpool.

Referee chief Howard Webb has reached out to Manchester United bosses to explain that a key error was made by matchday official Craig Pawson during the recent, damaging 3-1 defeat by Brentford.

Manchester United are pulling out all the stops to keep hold of their highly-rated youngster JJ Gabriel, and have taken the remarkable decision to offer the starlet a box at the new Old Trafford Stadium, which is due to be completed in 2030.

Benjamin Sesko shared his delight in scoring his first goal at Old Trafford in Manchester United's 2-0 win over Sunderland.
