Gary Neville has demanded that Manchester United "stop experimenting" with managers after Ruben Amorim was sacked on Monday.
Whilst the club plans to name a permanent manager in the summer, the 50-year-old's former teammate Darren Fletcher has taken charge until a caretaker is appointed.
The former Red Devil and England right-back urged his former side to appoint a manager who "fits the club's DNA" and believes United shouldn't change their system of play for a new manager.
Issuing his verdict, Neville claimed that the "experiments have got to stop."

He said: "I've always been very proud of what this club is - adventurous, exciting football, playing young players and entertaining the crowd.
"They must take risks and have the courage to play attacking, aggressive football. United have got to a point where they need a manager who fits the DNA of the football club.
"Barcelona will never change for anybody. I don't believe United should change for anybody.
"The club has to find a manager who has got experience and who's willing to play fast entertaining, attacking and aggressive football."

Amorim was heavily criticised for his 3-4-3 formation, which he implemented at Old Trafford following success at Sporting.
However, many called him out for stubbornness after he refused to change the system despite United struggling to adapt.
Neville told Sky Sports: "I thought they'd adapt better to the back three than they did."
"I'm really stunned that they've continued to play so poorly in that system."
