As the Manchester United bus pulled up at Turf Moor, one waiting Burnley suit muttered to himself that "the circus is in town."

It has been a dramatic week even by United's standards: the rapid breakdown in relations between Ruben Amorim and club bosses, a fiery Friday meeting with director of football Jason Wilcox, two incendiary news conferences, and another sacking. It's a club that can sometimes feel more like a soap opera with only a sprinkling of actual football.
