"If I have a different guy there, maybe we could defend that better," said Amorim of Amad but also explained why he wants him as a wing-back

Amad Diallo's disappointment at the failure to rack up a fourth straight win was palpable as the Manchester United star vowed to keep fighting to get the club back where they belong.

Manchester United's winning streak is now merely a four-game unbeaten run after the Red Devils blew an early lead but rallied to draw Nottingham Forest 2-2 at the City Ground on Saturday.

United earned a creditable point through Amad’s first goal of the season, and it was a spectacular one — hit sweetly on the volley during the second phase of Mbeumo’s right-sided set piece, after Nikola Milenkovic’s headed clearance only went as far as the edge of the penalty box.

Manchester United ace Amad Diallo admits he and Bryan Mbeumo have struck a close connection on and off the pitch.

Manchester United could look to complete another Amad Diallo-style transformation for a young winger, but should they?

The attacking pair could miss up to six Premier League games while on international duty over December and January.
