Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim says he will learn
more about his players during tomorrow’s Premier League match with Southampton
than he did from recent encouraging performances against Liverpool and Arsenal.

United followed up their draw at Anfield by knocking Arsenal
out of the FA Cup despite having Diogo Dalot sent off during the second-half at Emirates Stadium.

It has generated a positive atmosphere around Old Trafford
after a run of four straight defeats over the Christmas period.

However, Amorim is aware his team cannot play on the
counter-attack at home to a Southampton side that has won just once in the
league this season and is eight points adrift of second-bottom Leicester.

“This next game will teach
me more about my players than the last two,” he said.

“There is no expectation in
the last two games. Against Arsenal we waited for the opportunity. In the future
we can’t play like that and I know that. Fans will expect more tomorrow. We
have to deliver.”

Amorim refused to answer a question about the future of
Marcus Rashford, who has not played for United since 12 December and has been
linked with moves away from the club before the transfer window closes.
