""But if we have to change to a four back four, we change four back four. "I'm just focused on the next game. Let's go step by step. "We have a big match [against Aston Villa]. We need to win. We need to try to find different ways of playing, especially without Amad and Bryan. We lost some characteristics that are hard to find.""
""As well as missing Amad, Mbeumo and Mazraoui against Villa, Amorim will also be without Casemiro after he picked up his fifth yellow card of the season in the 4-4 draw with Bournemouth. It could present an opportunity for Kobbie Mainoo to make his first Premier League start since May. On Monday at Old Trafford, Mainoo's half-brother, Jordan Mainoo-Hames, was pictured wearing a "Free Kobbie Mainoo" T-shirt -- a reference to the midfielder's lack of game-time this season.""
Manchester United may abandon its 3-4-3 formation and adopt a four-man defence to compensate for the loss of Amad Diallo, Bryan Mbeumo and Noussair Mazraoui to the Africa Cup of Nations. Training sessions have been used to test different systems after a long period of sticking to the back three. The team will also be without Casemiro after he accumulated a fifth yellow card, creating a potential starting opportunity for Kobbie Mainoo. The immediate focus is on the upcoming match against Aston Villa and finding alternative playing methods while coping with lost characteristics.
