Man Utd need action, not words: Amorim

Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim said only results can silence his critics ahead of a Premier League clash against Sunderland that could decide his future.

Amorim has won just 34 points from his 33 Premier League games since taking charge at Old Trafford last November.

Failure to beat newly pro-moted Sunderland, who sit fifth in the table, on Saturday could prove the final straw for the United hierarchy ahead of a two-week international break.

After finishing 15th in the Premier League last season United's worst campaign since being relegated in 1974 Amorim was backed with more than £200 million ($269 million) in the transfer market.

However, there has been lit-tle sign of improvement, with the Red Devils languishing in 14th spot six games into the new season.
