Recent statistics have painted a damming picture of Ruben Amorim's Man United when they are out of possession.

After Erik ten Hag was sacked having led the club to their worst start in the Premier League era, Amorim arrived last month tasked with bringing United back to their best.

The 39-year-old has immediately set about installing his football philosophy and has proven that he does not shy away from making big calls, after leaving Marcus Rashford out of their last three matchday squads.

Speaking following a faltering start in his new role, Amorim insisted his team need to improve their defensive intensity if they are to return to the pinnacle of English football.
