Posting after the 2-0 result against Manchester United, Romeo wrote to David Beckham on Instagram: “Sleep well.”

United will now return to Premier League action on Saturday against Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford, with kick-off slated for 5:30pm UK time.

Speaking after the Arsenal defeat, Amorim warned United fans that they should expect him to keep rotating his team after making key changes against the Gunners.

“In this moment, it is impossible to play with the same team,” he said, as per Manchester United’s official website.

“They [the players] have to feel they are part of the team, but we are changing the methodology, we are changing a lot of things.

“We are changing the way we play, the way we press, so we have to have all the players fit.

“We cannot have injuries in this moment because it will be tough to cope with all the games so we will manage the way we feel is the better way for the team.”
