Is Amorim the man for Manchester United?

THE TIMES
About this episode

Is Ruben Amorim the man to bring the good times back to Manchester United?

As the current Portuguese coach is set to be named the new man in charge at Old Trafford what will he bring and more importantly what kind of squad will he inherit?

Martin Samuel, Jonathan Northcroft and Gregor Robertson join Tom Clarke to assess his credentials to take over “…the biggest club in the land.”

Can Ange-ball win a trophy at Spurs; Chelsea’s B team looked light against Newcastle and what makes a good leader?

Oh, and a quick mention of rampant Aberdeen.
