Is managing Man United the impossible job? Amorim will find out

It was late February 2014 in the Karaiskakis Stadium when former Manchester United chief executive Ed Woodward lent forward from his seat in the directors' box to take a picture of the scoreboard. With Olympiacos leading the Champions League tie 2-0, Woodward decided that the image on his phone would serve as a reminder that the club, less than a year into life without legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson, would never be allowed to sink so low again.

It's been 10 years since Woodward -- who stepped down as CEO in 2021 -- took the picture.
