Manchester United have no immediate plans to sack Ruben Amorim in the wake of Sunday’s derby defeat.

The Portuguese, who is coming up to a year in charge following the departure of Erik ten Hag, has now presided over the club’s worst start to a season in 33 years.

United were again exposed as they slumped to a 3-0 defeat in Sunday’s derby against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.

The loss leaves them with just four points from their opening four Premier League games and, after last season’s 15th-placed finish, the Portuguese remains under considerable pressure to deliver.

Amorim has won just eight league games as United boss and has refused to vary his tactical approach, regardless of results, since arriving at Old Trafford last November.
