MAZRAOUI, AMAD, BRYAN MBEUMO: MAN UTD NEGOTIATING AFCON RELEASE FOR KEY GAME
Ruben Amorim is waiting on AFCON negotiations to determine if Mazraoui, Amad, and Mbeumo can play against Bournemouth, which is key to United's top-six push.
Manchester United's coach, Ruben Amorim, isn't sure if Noussair Mazraoui, Amad Diallo, and Bryan Mbeumo will be ready for next Monday's game against Bournemouth at Old Trafford.
These three players started in the 4-1 win against Wolverhampton Wanderers, which moved Man United to sixth place in the league.
However, their availability for the Bournemouth match is uncertain because they're expected to play for their countries in the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).
FIFA recently said that the release period for players has been shortened by seven days, starting on December 15.
It's not clear if this means the trio will be able to play against Bournemouth.
The club is talking to the national teams, so we'll have to wait until midweek for more info. "I'm not certain yet, but we're doing what we can, and the national teams are talking to us, which is positive," Amorim told reporters after the Wolves game.
The Africa Cup of Nations starts on December 21 and ends on January 18, 2026. Mbeumo, Amad, and Mazraoui could miss six Premier League games, as well as the FA Cup's third round against Brighton.
In the win over Wolves, Bruno Fernandes scored twice, and Mbeumo and Mason Mount also got goals.
I think we had a great start, scoring early, but then let Wolves back into the game a bit. We struggled at the end of the first half, but we had good pace and made good decisions in the second half. Wolves are having a tough time right now. "It was a good night," Amorim told Sky Sports News.
We scored four, but we had many shots. We're creating many more chances and scoring more goals compared to last season, which is really pleasing.
I felt like we would win from the start, and I loved how we played in the second half. We need to win the next one; this game is in the past.
Man United is now just one point behind Crystal Palace in fourth place and five points behind Aston Villa in third, before the next matches.
EX-CAPTAIN NEVILLE CLAIMS SUBSTITUTIONS MADE MANCHESTER UNITED "WORSE" AGAINST WOLVES
Gary Neville slams Ruben Amorim’s "weird" substitutions and tactical shifts after Manchester United's 1-1 draw with bottom-side Wolves.
Gary Neville said that the performance of Manchester United in their match against winless Wolves was ‘the baddest of the bad.’
United would have moved fourth in the league with a win at Old Trafford last night, although Wolves, who had two points in 18 games before kickoff, ended their record of 11 straight losses with a 1-1 draw.
Amorim’s team had been knocked out of the Carabao Cup by a League Two team, Grimsby, in August, but Neville was convinced that United had hit rock bottom in a game that could have been even more one-sided were it not for two important saves by Senne Lammens.
“That was the baddest of the bad," the former United captain declared on the Gary Neville podcast.
“They weren’t just booed off at the final whistle. The fans waited in the stadium to continue to boo them. They’ve gone backwards.”
United had won at Newcastle 1-0 on Boxing Day, despite being plagued by an injury list that already lacked skipper Bruno Fernandes, Harry Maguire, and Matthijs de Ligt, as well as three players on African Cup of Nations duty.
But they remained flat right from the first whistle, and the header by Ladislav Krejci just before the half bottled Joshua Zirkzee's deflected shot.
Amorim’s formation choice of 3-4-3 was brought into focus once more as the Portuguese opted to go back to his preferred tactic of four at the back against Newcastle.
“This isn’t right. I’ve watched enough of United over the last five or six weeks to know what looks right and what isn’t right,” Neville had declared 20 minutes into his commentary on Sky Sports.
“Because, when I see that we go back (to three at the back) after five minutes tonight, I’m thinking, no, Ruben, why have you done that?
"The manager has to look at that and think, I got that wrong. I complicated it."
However, Amorim decided to substitute Zirkzee at halftime and brought on an 18-year-old Jack Fletcher, who made his third appearance at the senior level.
Regarding substitutions made by Amorim, Neville further added, “They made Manchester United worse. Every single substitution was ridiculous.”
‘If Zirkzee was injured, and it was a tactical substitution, that was a very poor one.’ But Zirkzee isn't Eric Cantona, not by a long shot, and he had to get out there for physicality, for presence, for experience.”
SEE LISANDRO MARTINEZ’S FURIOUS REACTION AFTER MAN UTD’S SHOCK WOLVES DRAW
Lisandro Martinez demands more after Man Utd’s 1-1 draw with bottom-placed Wolves. United ended 2025 sixth in the Premier League.
Stand-in captain Lisandro Martinez was mad that Manchester United dropped points against Wolves, who are at the bottom of the league.
United came into the last game of 2025 after a good win against Newcastle on Boxing Day and were expected to easily beat Wolves.
Joshua Zirkzee scored first for United, but they didn't take their chances. Ladislav Krejci's header tied the game for Wolves, 1-1.
It was only their third point in 19 games, and it stopped their 11-game losing streak. United fans booed at the end of the game.
When Martinez was asked if it felt like a disappointing point, he said, 100 percent.
We are very disappointed. We can't keep drawing or losing points at home. We have to win.
We want to be at the top, competing with the best.
We can't drop points in games like this. We just have to accept it and be hungry for the next game.
Martinez was captain again because Bruno Fernandes is still recovering from an injury.
When United coach Ruben Amorim was asked about injured players for the game against Leeds on Sunday, he didn't give much away. Leeds are really wanting to beat United for the first time since 2010.
Martinez said to MUTV, You can either make excuses, or you can be strong and say, 'We're dropping points, so we need to go for the next one and show what we can do.'
We need to work together and do the easy things to get the three points.
United is in sixth place in the league at the end of 2025, only two points behind Liverpool for the last Champions League spot. Liverpool has a game in hand.
They could be in a better position if they had been better in both boxes. Leeds has been playing well lately, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin doing great up front.
Martinez added, It's about us. I don't like to think about other teams.
I'm thinking about what we can do to get better as a team every day, and we have to learn from this game.
