Overview

• Brentford beat Manchester United 3-1, with a saved Bruno Fernandes penalty at 2-1 preventing a potential equaliser before Mathias Jensen sealed the result in stoppage time.
• United remain winless away in the league since March and have still not managed consecutive Premier League victories under Ruben Amorim, who has just nine wins from 33 league games and 34 points in that span.
• Amorim said his side "played the game of Brentford" and pointed to long balls, second balls and set pieces, as analysis highlighted United’s exposed two‑man midfield being overrun.
• Brentford fans chanted that Amorim would be sacked as scrutiny intensified, with pundits questioning his tactical persistence and United’s recurring defensive errors.
• TalkSPORT, via the Mirror, reported a shortlist including Gareth Southgate and recent contact from Sir Jim Ratcliffe, while BBC Sport reporting cited internal support for Amorim and no shortlist being prepared, and Sunderland visit Old Trafford next.
