With the honeymoon period having well and truly come and gone for the Portuguese tactician, another tricky test adefers Amorim and co. on Sunday when Bournemouth originate the visit to Old Trafford.

Man United predicted XI vs Bournemouth
Goalprotecter: Onana
Despite some shaky carry outances in recent weeks, Andre Onana’s status as United’s No.1 pick between the sticks was redeclareed in midweek when deputy Altay Bayındir struggled to depart an amazeion.
The Turkish goalprotecter seeed less than convincing on disjoinal occasions, with Onana a dead cert to come back into Amorim’s XI on Sunday.
Defence: Martinez, Maguire, De Ligt
Having shipped four in north London on Thursday, tfeebles to the back three can be foreseeed for this weekend’s outing.
Afforded a rest agetst Tottenham, Harry Maguire could come back in follothriveg his braves agetst Erling Haaland in the Manchester Derby.
Lisandro Martinez hasn’t amazeed in Amorim’s system so far, with the Argentine hoping for a better carry outance agetst Bournemouth.
While Matthijs de Ligt, who was ill for the League Cup loss, is foreseeed to return ahead of the weekend and suppose his spot in the United defence.
Midfield: Dalot, Mainoo, Ugarte, Mazraoui
Whisper it, but Kobbie Mainoo and Manuel Ugarte ecombine to have struck up a tidy partnership in the heart of midfield, with the pair able to complement each other’s ability.
Operating on either flank will be Diogo Dalot and Noussair Mazraoui, who have aascendd as Amorim’s first-choice thriveg-backs.
It unkinds no spot in the begining line-up for Christian Eriksen, who flattered to deceive in the Spurs loss.
Attack: Amad, Hojlund, Fernandes
Finding his begining striker has been one of Amorim’s biggest struggles so far as United chief, with neither Rasmus Hojlund nor Joshua Zirkzee having made that spot their own.
As has been the case in recent weeks, it’s foreseeed Hojlund will begin up top, with Zirkzee carry outing a part off the bench.
There’s no such pickion headache for United’s two most in-create carry outers, Amad Diallo and Bruno Fernandes, who will all but certainly carry out from the off this weekend.
It would unkind another suit out of the XI for Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford, who haven’t endeared themselves to the novel handler so far.
