Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has admitted that he's "fighting for his job" in the second half of the season while accepting that the club has taken "a risk" with their approach in the January transfer window.

Amorim could mix things up further by moving the Dutchman to the central centre-back position and Maguire to the left. Maguire has experience playing as the left-sided defender in a three for England and Hull City but he is more of a ball-carrying centre-back than a passer.

Amorim is 'out of his depth' as United manager and 'needs to learn fast if he wants to stay in the job' amid claims from a controversial TV personality that he is already thinking of leaving

Patrick Dorgu and Ayden Heaven were the only new additions made to Ruben Amorim's Manchester United squad last month.

Ruben Amorim says he could not get his message across to Marcus Rashford, feeling that he was not grasping his ideas in the pitch or in training. The relationship between Amorim and Rashford quickly fell apart after the Portuguese arrived as Red Devils boss and the England international was ousted from the first team.

Amorim's United feels like a pencil sketch of a grander planned work - there are signs of progress but huge improvements are needed
