It has been a challenging start to life in the Premier League for Ruben Amorim since taking over at Man United.

Another low point came on Boxing Day, as the Red Devils were easily swept aside by Wolves away from home. United have now lost three on the bounce across all competitions since a win over Man City.

Newcastle are very much on the charge in the Premier League after registering another big win on Boxing Day when securing a 3-0 win over Aston Villa.
