A new dawn approaches for Manchester United as Ruben Amorim leads his new club out for the first time at Ipswich Town on Sunday, marking his Premier League debut against a face familiar to the Red Devils. Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna spent five years at Old Trafford and was even associated with replacing Erik ten Hag before the English giants decided to stick with the Dutchman in the summer. Ten Hag has since received the boot, however, and the age of Amorim begins at Portman Road after the former Sporting CP boss got to grips with his new club over the international break.

And McKenna would like nothing more than to prove he may well have been the right fit for his old team over the summer, having impressed mightily with his work in Suffolk.
The Northern Irishman took charge of Ipswich when it dwelled in League One, but it was his work that guided them to the English elite within just two-and-a-half years.
The Amorim era officially gets underway at Portman Road, and hopes are high for the travelling supporters after getting a glimpse into the new coach’s methods during his first week in charge:
United may be making this trip at a bad time, too, considering the Tractor Boys notched their first league win of the campaign away to Tottenham just prior to the recent international break.
All eyes are on just how Amorim will alter things for United, though certain key personnel like Alejandro Garnacho and Manuel Ugarte – whom he managed at Sporting – look certain to feature prominently.
United has won the last four straight meetings between these two clubs, though the most recent of those was when Ipswich lost 3-0 at Old Trafford all the way back in 2015.
