Manchester United face Southampton in the Premier League later today, so we simulated the clash to predict what could happen.

Amorim would like United to build up with a genuine three at the back, rather than the four it has been when protection is the first priority. At Anfield, United took the lead because Martinez sensed a moment to press high, snapping into Mohamed Salah to win the ball and then stay up to receive Fernandes’ slipped pass.

The pressure to deliver can be the key to turning Manchester United's season around, coach Ruben Amorim said on Wednesday as his team looks to end a four-match winless run in the Premier League when they face bottom side Southampton.

Ruben Amorim has told Alejandro Garnacho he still has work to do if he is to earn a regular role in the Manchester United starting line up under him. The 20-year-old was one of the first names on the team sheet under previous manager Erik ten Hag but has seen his playing time diminish following the arrival of new head coach Amorim.

Manchester United are reportedly keen on bolstering their defensive options with the signing of Barcelona's Andreas Christensen. The Danish international has struggled for regular first-team football at the Camp Nou and could be available for a move away from Catalonia.
