Goalkeeping conundrum for United

After Andre Onana's poor showing at Blundell Park and Altay Bayindir looking suspect from set-piece situations, who starts in goal for United now?

Is it too much for Tom Heaton to make an appearance? He can't be much worse than Onana after all.

Team news for Burnley clash

While Amorim will provide a fitness update on his squad ahead of the Clarets' visit to Old Trafford, here is a reminder of the state of play in terms of who he can choose from.

Lisandro Martinez is still out with a long-term knee injury, while Noussair Mazraoui is unlikely to recover for Saturday.

Amorim apology to fans in the wake of Grimsby defeat

Speaking after the loss, Amorim apologised to United fans for his side's early exit, which realistically leaves them with only the FA Cup still to win this season - and the month of August not yet over.

Amorim said: ‘I just have to say sorry to our fans. The way we started the game, we were not even here.

'When everything is so important in our club, everything that happened, it's a problem in our club, we should do so much better.'
