Ruben Amorim, Manchester United's manager, admitted that the win over Southampton made his post-match meetings with Sir Jim Ratcliffe easier. ' Sir Jim Ratcliffe ,' ' Ruben Amorim. ' Getty Images (2) Manchester United's challenging and uneven performances have continued under Amorim, who took charge at Old Trafford after Erik ten Hag left in October.

2025: Every Manchester United player's weekly pay

For the most period, the team has failed to regain the form they shown under Sir Alex Ferguson, and they are frequently vying for a spot in the top four rather than a league title. ' Marcus Rashford. ' Getty Images Sport After a strong first season in command, Erik ten Hag appeared to be the man to assist the team return to the Premier League's top flight. He spent a lot of money during the summer and has made significant investments in the present squad. However, after falling far short of expectations last season, the new-look leadership gave the Dutchman one final opportunity before giving him his P45 following a 2-1 loss to West Ham United. Ruben Amorim, 39, has subsequently established himself in the Old Trafford dugout, and with the January trading period approaching, he may try to make sweeping changes to accommodate his 3-4-3 system....

How much every Liverpool player is paid weekly [2025]

Liverpool appear to have won everything over the last decade. While a sixth Champions League high point and a first Premier League title in 30 years were impressive enough, the fact that the Jurgen Klopp era achieved such unprecedented heights while operating with a net spend far lower than their rivals adds significantly to the Reds' recent success stories. ' Mo Salah. ' Getty Images Liverpool have frequently been praised for its economic plan, which has kept the club on stable financial footing. Whereas other top European club owners are concerned about past devil-may-care transfer strategies, the Reds are far from the Financial Fair Play restrictions that are creeping up with Chelsea and Manchester City.
