Ruben Amorim has explained his decision to not keep Ruud van Nistelrooy as part of his coaching staff at Manchester United. Van Nistelrooy was initially brought in as part of Erik ten Hag ’s coaching team last the summer but following the Dutchman’s sacking he was asked to step in as interim manager.

Ruben Amorim is confident that Patrick Dorgu is ready to make an impact at Manchester United after handing him his debut against Leicester City. The Dane was recruited from Italian side Lecce just under a week ago and has been thrown straight into the starting XI for tonight's tussle with the Foxes. He is expected to start at left wing-back.

Amorim could mix things up further by moving the Dutchman to the central centre-back position and Maguire to the left. Maguire has experience playing as the left-sided defender in a three for England and Hull City but he is more of a ball-carrying centre-back than a passer.
