Overview

• Jamie Carragher urged Manchester United to part ways with Ruben Amorim after the Brentford loss, citing 34 points from 33 league games and 17 defeats that leave United 14th.
• Sir Jim Ratcliffe is reported to be publicly backing Amorim, yet multiple outlets say the club is assessing alternatives including Oliver Glasner, Gareth Southgate and Marco Silva.
• Crystal Palace’s Glasner would take the job "in a heartbeat" if offered, according to journalists cited by TalkSPORT and CaughtOffside, though no approach has been reported.
• Rio Ferdinand called for a switch to a 4-2-3-1 to suit the squad, while Gary Neville criticised the use of Mason Mount at left wing-back in the Brentford defeat.
• Some reports describe an urgent meeting where executives pushed for a move to a 4-3-3 and say Amorim was left speechless, a claim not confirmed by the club.
