Ruben Amorim has two first-team Manchester United players at Old Trafford who could stand out in the 2025-26 Premier League season for all of the right reasons.
Manchester United kicked off their new Premier League campaign earlier this month and the Red Devils are still waiting for their first win in the current season.
The Red Devils hosted the Gunners in their Premier League opener and United lost 1-0 to Arsenal at Old Trafford, despite impressing with their overall showing.
Following United’s defeat to Arsenal on the opening weekend of the 2025-26 season, the Red Devils embarked on the road for the first time in the current campaign.
United met Fulham at Craven Cottage on Sunday and the Red Devils were able to pick up their first Premier League point after a 1-1 draw against Marco Silva’s men.

MUTV pundit Danny Simpson makes his stance clear on Leny Yoro after Man Utd’s Premier League result against Fulham
Leny Yoro impressed with his superb showing in Manchester United’s Premier League clash with Fulham, with the defender playing a key role in the opener.
The 19-year-old connected with a cross from Bryan Mbeumo’s corner and Leny Yoro’s header took a deflection off Rodrigo Muniz before landing in the Fulham net.
Yoro earned the praise of United fans for his performance in Sunday’s 1-1 draw, with MUTV pundit Danny Simpson spotlighting the role that he is playing in the backline.
“I’m really excited to see him this season,” Danny Simpson told MUTV, as per Manchester United’s official website.
“He looks like he’s making that position his own, on the right of the three [in defence].”
Danny Simpson explains on MUTV what he has seen from Matheus Cunha after the Man Utd star’s performance vs Fulham
Matheus Cunha initially led the frontline of the Red Devils attack in the first half of the 1-1 Premier League draw at Craven Cottage on Sunday afternoon.
The 26-year-old United summer signing was incredibly lively in the opening 45 minutes and Matheus Cunha saw an early first-half chance ricochet off the post.
Danny Simpson was in awe at how the ‘fearless’ former Wolves ace was playing on the pitch and believes that Cunha has stepped up as United’s No 10 this season.
“Wearing the No 10 for United, it’s a big shirt,” the MUTV pundit said.
“But he makes it seem very light. He wants the ball all the time; he wants to create.
“He’s got no fear, and that’s what I love about him. He takes things on.”
United will now shift their attention away from the Premier League for their second-round Carabao Cup encounter with Grimsby Town on Wednesday evening.
