EPL: Amorim is my age mate, I have no faith in him – Wayne Rooney

Former Manchester United striker, Wayne Rooney, has said he has “no faith” in current manager Ruben Amorim.

Rooney was reacting to the Red Devils’ 3-1 defeat to Brentford last Saturday.

The result means Amorim’s men have only won two league fixtures so far and sit in 14th place.

United have also been eliminated from the Carabao Cup by Grimsby Town.

In Rooney’s opinion, Amorim’s days as United manager are numbered.

Speaking on the Wayne Rooney Show, he said: “Ruben Amorim is my age, a bit younger, he’s still a young manager. I’m sure he has a great future. But what is going on at Man United? I don’t recognise the whole football club.

“I honestly hope he can turn it round and he does. But if you’re saying to me, ‘do you believe he will?’, then, after everything I’ve seen, honestly, I’ve got no faith in it.”
