Ruben Amorim slashes two names off his Man Utd team-sheet for Europa League clash vs Bodo/Glimt

RUBEN AMORIM cut TWO names from his Manchester United squad for the Europa League clash with Bodo/Glimt.

He lined up with a strong starting line-up as Man Utd sought a first win under their new manager following a 1-1 draw with Ipswich on Sunday.

And there was a notable change to Amorim‘s side as the team sheets came out.

He only named 10 players on the bench – two fewer than Man Utd’s last Europa League game against PAOK.

Teams are permitted 12 substitutes – with Bodo/Glimt opting to fill their bench.

But Amorim chose not to use his full bench.

And two of those named as substitutes were goalkeepers – Altay Bayindir and Tom Heaton – meaning he had just eight outfield subs to use.

They were Marcus Rashford, Joshua Zirkzee, Christian Eriksen, Amad Diallo, Casemiro, Diogo Dalot, Luke Shaw and Kobbie Mainoo.

The starting XI consisted of Andre Onana in goal and a back three of Noussair Mazraoui, Matthijs de Ligt and Lisandro Martinez.

Tyrell Malacia and Antony were the wing-backs, with Manuel Ugarte and Mason Mount in midfield.

Bruno Fernandes and Alejandro Garnacho then played more attacking roles, with Rasmus Hojlund up front.
