OLD TRAFFORD has always endured it's fair share of chaos. The latest damage done came from new boss Ruben Amorim's heavy hands on Sunday. Furious Amorim reportedly damaged a TV screen in the home dressing room following United's 3-1 defeat by Brighton. And eagle-eyed fans were convinced they'd spotted a cut on the Portuguese gaffer's hand a few days later.

Asked about his outburst ahead of United's Europa League clash against Rangers, Amorim admitted: "I don't promise I will not do it again. I don't know, but I'll try to improve.". But Amorim's outburst was minor in comparison to the carnage witnessed in days gone by.

SunSport presents some of the wildest behind the scenes incidents at Old Trafford, kicking off with a United legend... Sir Alex Ferguson wasn't one to suffer fools gladly. The Scot's most high-profile bust-up with one his stars came in the shape of poster-boy David Beckham.

The pair effed and blinded before Fergie kicked Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's boot, which slapped Becks in the face and cut his eye. The England legend had a furious reaction to being hit, adding: "I went at him - someone had to hold me back.". Less than half a year later, Beckham was headed to Real Madrid after Fergie washed his hands of him.
