For Manchester United fans, it already feels like a lifetime ago when Ruben Amorim was appointed head coach and optimism filled the air at Old Trafford. Well, it's only been four months.

In that time, Amorim has branded his side as ‘maybe the worst in the history of Manchester United’ and has reiterated how 'hard' his job is on numerous occasions. It's fair to say that the air of optimism has dissipated into a pool of pessimism.

Even after scraping past Ipswich, albeit with 10 men, United sit 14th in the Premier League table, level on points with similarly struggling Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham.
