Bruno Fernandes says Ruben Amorim has been telling the Manchester United squad ‘a lot’ that they need to score more goals as he tries to spark the Red Devils back into life.

Amorim would like United to build up with a genuine three at the back, rather than the four it has been when protection is the first priority.
