Sir Alex Ferguson has stated that it may take Manchester United another 10 to 11 years to win the Premier League title, drawing a parallel to Liverpool's extended wait following their success in the 1990s.

Ruben Amorim, however, publicly disagreed with Ferguson's assessment, asserting that United will not require that long to reclaim the title and highlighting that it is uncertain which manager will be in charge then.

Amorim also criticised a sense of entitlement among some United players and emphasized the need for a club-wide cultural change to improve the club's prospects.

Amass, currently on loan at Sheffield Wednesday, and Chido Obi, who is not always a starter for United's under-21s, were involved in social-media posts that were later deleted.

Amorim mentioned that his door is open for players to communicate, but noted that they often choose not to come forward and talk to him.

Regarding player selection, Kobbie Mainoo will not be punished for his half-brother's actions and will only be dropped or benched if he is not the right choice for the team; the player impressed as a substitute against Aston Villa.

Casemiro faces suspension for Sunday's game against Aston Villa.

Additionally, Bruno Fernandes claimed that the club's hierarchy wanted him to leave during the summer transfer window. Fernandes discussed this matter with the Portuguese Football Federation, but Amorim remarked that the situation is not clear and would require further clarification.
