"Manchester United secured a morale-boosting victory over Sunderland last weekend to relieve the pressure on Ruben Amorim following a difficult start to the season. Amorim praised a focused performance from his team against a Sunderland side who have enjoyed a strong opening to the campaign, but was careful not to look too far ahead with United still yet to win back-to-back games this term. There has been little cause for optimism at United this season,"
"It was never going to take much to oust Altay Bayindir as United's first-choice goalkeeper. Bayindir, who took the job from Andre Onana at the start of the season, has flattered to deceive with a number of shaky performances eventually leading Amorim to drop him. In his place, Senne Lammens, an 18million Deadline Day arrival from Royal Antwerp, made his long-awaited debut against Sunderland and produced a competent performance as United achieved their first clean sheet of the season."
Manchester United beat Sunderland to relieve pressure on Ruben Amorim after a difficult start to the season. Amorim praised a focused team performance but remained cautious because United have yet to win consecutive games. The win suggested a side maturing under Amorim and provided momentum ahead of a pivotal trip to Anfield, where Liverpool have lost three matches in a row. Altay Bayindir was dropped after shaky displays and 18million signing Senne Lammens debuted, keeping United's first clean sheet of the season with a competent display. Lammens claimed crosses, played out from the back at times and made smart saves, helping to steady a defence that had conceded 11 league goals.
