The Sun reports a leak from the Man Utd dressing room in which Amorim told his players after the game that he rated them at just 5/10.

“Amorim said their performance was a five out of 10," a source from the Man Utd dressing room was quoted as saying.

"He was impressed with Ipswich and thought the game was played at an incredible intensity. But he added that it showed just how much United need to improve.

"He was critical of one or two players for losing the ball and not being in the right positions.

“But he also said, ‘Some of you I’ve had for two days, some two weeks’, so he was realistic. He did say they were going to have to learn quickly."

Amorim was named as the new Man Utd head coach following the sacking of Erik ten Hag.

The 39-year-old has a huge task on his hands to awaken the sleeping giants.

United are currently languishing in 12th position in the Premier League after a dismal start to the season.

Amorim’s first game in charge at Old Trafford is on Thursday when United host Bodoe/Glimt in the Europa League.

His first home game in the Premier League is on Sunday as United take on Everton before a tough trip to the Emirates to play Arsenal.

United’s other games before Christmas are Nottingham Forest (h), Viktoria Plzen (a), Manchester City (a), Tottenham Hotspur in the EFL Cup quarter finals (a) and Bournemouth (h).
