Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has won four and lost five of his first 10 games in charge
Former United star Cristiano Ronaldo has backed Portuguese compatriot Amorim to turn the club's fortunes around.
Ronaldo's second spell at Old Trafford ended in November 2022 following an explosive TV interview with presenter and journalist Piers Morgan.
"He [Amorim] did a fantastic job in Portugal with my [club] Sporting," said Ronaldo.
"But the Premier League is a different beast, the most competitive league in the world. I knew that it would be tough and they will continue the storm.
"But the storm will finish and the sun will rise. Things crossed, it will be good with him and I hope the best for Manchester United because it is a club I still love."
Al Nassr forward Ronaldo, 39, who was speaking at the Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai where he was named the Best Middle East player of 2024, added: "I will continue to say, the problem is not the coaches.
"It's like the aquarium and you have the fish inside and it's sick, and you take him out and fix the problem.
"If you put it back in the aquarium it will be sick again. This is the problem of Manchester United. It is the same."
