(3-4-3) Ugarte, Rashford and Fernandes to start – Ipswich vs Man Utd predicted starting XI and Latest team news on Ruben Amorim first premier league game
When Manchester United plays Ipswich Town on Sunday, Ruben Amorim will be in the dugout for the first time as manager. The Portuguese head coach has a lot to think about for his Premier League debut.
Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia, who haven’t played a minute of first-team football this season, are back in full training, and United’s injury issues have started to improve just in time for the new head coach.
The two will be evaluated in the days leading up to the trip to Portman Road after they trained once more this week under the new coach.
Summertime signing Additionally, Leny Yoro has fully recovered from the fractured metatarsal he sustained during his lone preseason outing.
Kobbie Mainoo is also back in training after his recent thigh problem having not featured since the goalless draw with Aston Villa in October. Mason Mount was also back in action in clips that were shared from Carrington on Monday.
Harry Maguire remains unavailable however as he recovers from his recent knock while there was also concern for Lisandro Martinez, who was sent home from international duty with Argentina ahead of schedule with a back problem.
The centre-half will be assessed with Amorim expected to provide an update when he faces the media for the first time on Friday.
The biggest question over Amorim’s team will be whether he immediately switches to a 3-4-3 formation, his preferred system which delivered success at Sporting in Portugal.
Monday’s training session suggested his side will be deployed with three at the back, with Antony and Malacia taking up wing-back roles on the right and left respectively.
With 10 players still away on international duty, the set-up at the start of the week seems unlikely to be reflected in the starting XI on Sunday.
How United could line up this weekend.
Amad Diallo will be hopeful of keeping his spot in the side after shining in Ruud van Nistelrooy’s final two games in charge.
Alejandro Garnacho and Manuel Ugarte meanwhile are both still on international duty with Argentina and Uruguay in action in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
