If Ruben Amorim was watching Manchester United’s lacklustre home draw against Chelsea, then the Portuguese boss will already know the size of the task that awaits him. Despite briefly leading through a Bruno Fernandes penalty in the second half, the hosts again clearly lacked a cutting edge in front of goal.

One can only imagine the mixture of emotions coursing through Ruben Amorim’s body and brain as he emerged from the tunnel at the Estadio Jose Alvalade and, presumably for the last ever time, made his way towards the home dugout.

One man convinced the Man United hierarchy have got their appointment spot on is former Aston Villa striker, Gabby Agbonlahor. The goalscorer-turned-pundit has crossed paths with the soon-to-be ex-Sporting CP leader and offered his thoughts on his imminent arrival in Manchester.
