Ruben Amorim enjoyed a rare slither of peace as he toasted his birthday out in Manchester with his wife Maria Joao Diogo on Monday.
The Manchester United boss celebrated turning 40 but joked to the press that he felt more like 50 years old after his baptism of fire at Old Trafford.
Amorim has experienced a topsy-turvy start at the helm of one of the football giants and is contending with the stresses of the final days of the transfer window.
All the same, he was pictured going to a birthday lunch at Cibo Restaurant in Wilmslow with his wife.
