"I would say yes, but they've had that before in the last 10 years. You know, we've had Jose Mourinho, Van Gaal. We've had experienced managers come in and they've not done the job either way. That's because they weren't given time. Maybe they were clashing with the board again and didn't get the resources and players they wanted. It seems to be a bit of a running theme at Old Trafford these days. So it really, really depends."

Rúben Amorim was sacked after a turbulent period that included a tense post-match news conference following a draw with Leeds in which he criticised the club hierarchy. Amorim won 24 of 63 games (D18 L21) and oversaw United's Europa League final defeat to Tottenham. He registered the lowest Premier League metrics among recent United bosses: a 32% win ratio, 1.53 goals conceded per game, and a 15% clean sheet ratio. Darren Fletcher will take charge against Burnley while a caretaker is sought. Reported permanent candidates include Oliver Glasner, Gareth Southgate, Xavi, and Enzo Maresca. Opta recorded that Amorim used 25 different starting central defensive partnerships in the Premier League. A recommendation was made to opt for a more experienced managerial appointment, citing past experienced hires who failed when not given time, resources, or alignment with the board.
