Overview

• Manchester United beat Sunderland 2-0 before the international break, a brief lift in a start that includes three wins from seven league matches.
• Football365’s analysis highlights poor second-half returns, a weak record after conceding first, and no points gained from losing positions.
• Media reports continue to link Oliver Glasner, Fabian Hurzeler, Andoni Iraola and Eddie Howe as potential successors.
• Former Newcastle midfielder Jeff Hendrick told Boyle Sports he would be surprised if Howe left Newcastle and suggested United could keep Amorim through the next window.
• The Oct. 19 trip to Liverpool is widely framed by commentators as a potential tipping point for how the club proceeds.
