Ruben Amorim is concerned about the injury status of a number of important players in addition to Manchester United's dismal Premier League performance. The Portuguese are lacking in quality in the midfield, as Kobbie Mainoo and Toby Collyer are both out until April.

Christian Eriksen and Casemiro don't fit Amorim's high-intensity style, which is why they don't start, thus the head coach's only good choices are Bruno Fernandes and Manuel Ugarte. The England international's endless energy off the ball and versatility up front have made Mason Mount an ideal match for the Portuguese tactician's style, and he has been a significant miss. Mount has missed 25 games this season and 31 in the previous campaign, making the former Chelsea star a terrible addition to the Red Devils. Before suffering a thigh injury, he made just three starts under the current coach, and it appears that INEOS is growing impatient with the Englishman.
