• Jamie Carragher labelled Ruben Amorim’s tenure a disaster on Sky Sports and said it would be better for both sides to part ways.
• Manchester United sit 14th after a 3-1 loss at Brentford, with coverage citing 17 Premier League defeats since Amorim took charge.
• Club figures have signaled public support while reports link a shortlist of potential successors that includes Oliver Glasner, Gareth Southgate and Marco Silva.
• Glasner has emerged as the bookmakers’ favourite, and the Crystal Palace manager said he is following the rumours neutrally as he focuses on his current job.
• Separate reports describe an urgent meeting where officials pushed for a switch to a 4-3-3, as scrutiny of selections such as Mason Mount at left wing-back draws fresh criticism.
