Ruben Amorim’s pre-match thoughts

He’s ready to start, it’s a good game for him. The injuries to Matheus Cunha and Mason Mount [are a factor] but we want him to use his pace behind the defence.

[On the omission of Kobbie Mainoo and Amad moving up to No10] We need a winger playing inside more than an extra midfielder; that’s my feeling. I think we will have space in behind.

It was tough news to wake up to. Of course he had success and was world champion, but it’s the loss for his family, his kids; he was a grandad. It’s so tough for everyone.
