RUBEN AMORIM CONFIRMS: BRUNO FERNANDES KEEPS PENALTY DUTIES DESPITE MISSES
Man United boss Ruben Amorim confirms Bruno Fernandes remains his main penalty taker despite recent misses. The manager backs his captain ahead of a crucial trip to face Liverpool at Anfield.

Bruno Fernandes is the penalty taker for Manchester United, and Ruben Amorim maintains that he has complete faith in him.
Up until this season, when he has missed two of his three penalties—in a draw with Fulham and a loss to Brentford—the Portuguese has been dependable from the spot throughout his Red Devils career.
Amorim laughed and continued, "I know that is not easy for him, but I guess he had 70 penalties, and he misses like nine, two with me, so I am extremely unhappy with that."
However, he exudes confidence. In order to be prepared, he is practicing the penalties and attempting to comprehend that others are observing how he scores them. We have more players who can also score a penalty if necessary.
When asked if Fernandes would retain the responsibility, Amorim responded, "Yes, he is the main taker." United had added forwards Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha, and Benjamin Sesko in the summer, all of whom could fill in.
He is passing right now and scores a lot of goals and penalties. We can do something else. Once more, we can adjust if necessary, but I have complete faith that Bruno will resolve that.
Fernandes, meanwhile, was singled out by Amorim as being out of the ordinary among his players in terms of attending a lot of games.
"I think that is normal," the 40-year-old said, expressing his belief that other distractions have taken over.
"There are many diversions now, and everything is different. They probably do not watch many sports. You have players like Bruno, who follows every game on TV and keeps an eye on his teammates.
"However, there are those guys who play really well; it is okay if they want to try something else."
When United plays Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday, they will try to accomplish something they have not been able to do under Amorim yet: win consecutive Premier League games.
After losing three straight games heading into the international break, Arne Slot's team is similarly anxious for a win, and the home crowd will do their best to frighten the visitors.
Amorim, who managed a 2-2 draw at Anfield the previous season, trusted his team to cope with the commotion.
We shown last year that we could, and I believe that how we begin the game matters more than the surroundings, he stated.
The atmosphere will undoubtedly be noisy if they get a corner or an opportunity, but we are prepared to play with that. If you look at last year—not this year, but last year—you can see that we occasionally perform better there than under pressure at home, so you never know what will happen.
It is crucial to get off to a strong start, warm up well, have a gut instinct, and realize that the opening few minutes of the game will be difficult. Therefore, even though I am aware that they are prepared, we still need to get ready for the effect, particularly at the start of the game.
DISCIPLINARY BLOW: MADRID PLAYER SUSPENDED POST EL CLáSICO TUSSLE
Real Madrid's backup keeper Andriy Lunin has been handed a one-game suspension by the RFEF for his aggressive conduct on the bench during the heated final moments of El Clásico. Real Madrid's appeal was rejected.

Los Blancos' goalie Andriy Lunin has been suspended for one game by the RFEF Disciplinary Committee for his involvement in the sideline dramas during the El Clásico's final moments. Although the cameras did not catch it, referee Soto Grado did record that he had sent the Ukrainian off.
According to Mundo Deportivo, the RFEF responded as follows when asked why Lunin received a red card.
The reason for Lunin, Andrii's expulsion in the 90th minute was that he had to be restrained by his teammates after he walked aggressively from his bench to the blonde bench.
The disciplinary committee of the RFEF
"When considered significant, those whose behaviour violates sporting order will be suspended for four to ten games or fined between 602 and 3,006 euros."
Because of Lunin's actions, which constituted a minor violation of the sporting order, he was suspended for one game. The ruling had been challenged by Real Madrid. However, the RFEF stayed steadfast, defending the referee's ruling and the evidence in the match report and on film.
Now, the backup goalie will not play against Valencia this weekend, where he is probably going to be benched. Fran Gonzalez and Sunico, both from the youth team, might be called up as the matchday squad's third choice, with Sergio Mestre serving as a backup.
No Barcelona players or any other Real Madrid players were slapped with bans following the two flash moments in the closing stages of the game. When Vinicius Jr. and Lamie Yamal argued, even players who were not on the team were spotted shoving on the side of the field. The RFEF, however, determined that nothing that came to pass would justify further prohibitions.

According to Bukayo Saka, it is feasible for Arsenal and England to win both games this season. The season has started well for the Gunners under Mikel Arteta's leadership.
Arsenal leads the Premier League standings by four points at the moment and is starting to look like a title contender. Manchester City is only one point ahead of defending champions Liverpool, who are seven points behind.
Saka, however, is not only interested in winning at his club; he also hopes to succeed internationally. Manager Thomas Tuchel has stated that winning the trophy is his ambition for England, who have qualified for the World Cup in the USA next year.
Saka is optimistic about his club's and his nation's chances of winning. "Yeah, that is my prayer," he remarked in an interview with Sky Sports. It is possible, of course.
