  WHAT HAPPENED?

  Mazraoui was among United's best performers as Amorim recorded his first win since taking charge. The Moroccan, playing at right centre-back, set up Rasmus Hojlund's first goal and completed 96% of his passes as his impressive start to life at Old Trafford continued.

  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  It wasn't a perfect display from Amorim's side, who had to recover from 2-1 down to record all three points, but a step in the right direction following last weekend's draw with Ipswich Town. And in Mazraoui, the Portuguese boss believes he has a player who represents United's future.

• WHAT AMORIM SAID

  "He’s an incredible player, he’s our future," Amorim said of Mazraoui. "He played in different positions, he looks always fresh but we have to be careful. There’s a lot of games but he’s here to stay. This kind of player is what we need."
