Man United stopped prioritising on-field success once Sir Alex Ferguson stepped down as manager in 2013. Ruben Amorim is paying a heavy price for that now.

In the aftermath of a 3-1 defeat to Brighton at Old Trafford, Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has declared that his squad of players are possibly the worst in the club’s entire history.

Marc Skinner didn’t want his players to have any regrets after the Manchester derby, and he didn’t want excuses either. The Manchester United head coach wanted personality, energy and hunger. United had never beaten City away in the league and had only won one out of 10 WSL Manchester derbies.
