Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has admitted he made Amad Diallo a bit upset by subbing him off against Liverpool today. The Red Devils earned a big win at Anfield, with goals from Bryan Mbeumo and Harry Maguire delivering their first three points at this stadium since all the way back in 2016. Amorim was delighted with how Amad played, with the talented young wing-back setting up the Mbeumo goal with a superb pass and generally putting in a great shift up and down that right flank.
Nottingham Forest's search for a new manager after yesterday's sacking of Ange Postecoglou could reportedly end up being bad news for Manchester United. It seems one name on Forest's list of targets to replace Postecoglou is Fulham boss Marco Silva, according to the Times. We also know, however, that Ruben Amorim probably isn't that safe at Man United, and this has previously seen Silva come up on their list of candidates, according to Football Insider.
It is Liverpool against Manchester United and a manager is on a historically bad run. Not Ruben Amorim, either, who has equalled his longest winning sequence in the Premier League as United head coach (admittedly, that is only one victory). But Arne Slot has suffered three successive defeats for the first time: in his managerial career, not merely in his reign on Merseyside.
Ruben Amorim has faced increasing scrutiny over his tactics during a difficult 11 months in charge of Manchester United. The United boss has refused to deviate from his favoured 3-4-2-1 formation since arriving at Old Trafford, despite a string of calamitous results. Red Devils stars have reportedly been left 'confused' and 'frustrated' by Amorim's tactical inflexibility, but the Portuguese may have now found a way to make the formation better suit his players.
Manchester United will surely be on high alert again for Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola after his side's win that took them to second in the Premier League table last night. The Spanish tactician is doing a superb job with the Cherries at the moment, and it's understood that he's appreciated by Man Utd, even if no talks have taken place yet.
