Manchester United's new era started on Nov 11 when Ruben Amorim jetted into town to start the daunting task of restoring the English Premier League club to former glory.
The Portuguese coach bid farewell to Sporting Lisbon in style on Nov 10, securing a thrilling 4-2 comeback win at his former club Braga - an 11th victory in 11 league games.
The mood in Manchester, meanwhile, has been lifted by three wins in four matches in all competitions since interim boss Ruud van Nistelrooy took over from the sacked Erik ten Hag.
But Amorim will be under no illusions as to the scale of his task at United, who are languishing 13th in the Premier League table after just four wins in 11 matches.
United announced his arrival at their training base on Nov 11 afternoon, confirming shortly afterwards that van Nistelrooy had left the club.
Here is a look at the challenges that Amorim faces:
CHANGE THE SCRIPT
United have been crowned English champions a record 20 times, but they have failed even to compete for the Premier League or Champions League titles since Alex Ferguson stepped down in 2013.
Amorim, a 39-year-old former Portugal international, is United's sixth permanent appointment since the end of Ferguson's trophy-filled 27-year reign.
