"After only 14 months in charge, Ruben Amorim was sacked on Monday following his latest criticism of the club's hierarchy. United are sixth in the Premier League and in contention for Champions League football next season. BBC Sport understands Darren Fletcher will take charge for the next few matches before United appoint a caretaker manager for the rest of the season."
"With Erik ten Hag, Ralf Rangnick and now Amorim ending in failure at United, should they go with a manager tried and tested in the Premier League? Unai Emery has done a sterling job in leading Aston Villa from the edge of relegation back to Europe and into title contention this season. Villa are third in the table - only six points adrift of leaders Arsenal."
Ruben Amorim was sacked after 14 months following criticism of the club hierarchy. Manchester United sit sixth in the Premier League and remain in contention for Champions League qualification. Darren Fletcher will take charge for the next few matches before a caretaker manager is appointed for the rest of the season. Potential external candidates include Unai Emery, Andoni Iraola, Oliver Glasner and Eddie Howe. Emery has led Aston Villa into title contention and European qualification; Villa are third and six points behind the leaders. Bournemouth have an 11-match winless run under Iraola. Internal options include Fletcher and Michael Carrick, who made 463 United appearances and won 17 trophies.
