Can Amad Diallo become the important player to help Manchester United turnaround their season under Ruben Amorim?

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.

Amad spared Manchester United's blushes as his three late goals secured a 3-1 win over Southampton at Old Trafford on Thursday night. United conceded from yet another set piece as Tyler Dibling flicked the ball on at the near post and it deflected off Manuel Ugarte and into the back of the net.
