Overview

• The former United captains said on The Overlap that Diego Simeone’s personality and record would bring “good havoc” at Old Trafford, with Neville endorsing Keane’s choice.
• Paul Scholes instead named Newcastle’s Eddie Howe as his preferred candidate, noting doubts about assistant Jason Tindall joining him.
• Ratcliffe dismissed knee‑jerk decisions and said Amorim must prove himself over a three‑year horizon despite recent poor form.
• Amorim remains under pressure after 37 points from 34 Premier League games, a 15th‑place finish last season, and a current position of 10th following a brief lift from beating Sunderland.
• Several reports caution that luring Simeone from long‑time club Atletico Madrid is unlikely in the near term given his loyalty and success.
