Manchester United face a daunting challenge as they prepare for their home clash with Ipswich Town at Old Trafford.
Ruben Amorim must navigate a storm of injuries while his side desperately seeks a win.
Injury woes mount for United after Amad Diallo and Lisandro Martinez suffered season-ending setbacks. The club has now gone three league games without victory, raising urgent questions about squad depth.
Amorim confirmed that Luke Shaw, Kobbie Mainoo, Mason Mount, Jonny Evans, and Toby Collyer remain sidelined. The manager also ruled out any return for these players, while Lisandro Martinez and Amad Diallo sit out the rest of the season. Concerns over Noussair Mazraoui add to the crisis.
The clash against Everton ended in a 2-2 draw, even without many key names. Amorim’s pre-match press conference underlined his resolve to fight back using every available resource.

He has already turned to promising academy prospects. In recent games against Everton and Tottenham, he activated Ayden Heaven, Harry Amass, Sekou Kone, Chido Obi-Martin, and Elyh Harrison from the bench to keep hopes alive.
Amorim told the media, “Amad is out for a long time. I think Mason continues to make his recovery, and Luke is still on the mend. I don’t have a day. Toby seems to be the closest one but not now. Kobbie is recovering. We have to adapt to use the players that we have for the schedule.” His blunt assessment leaves no room for doubt.
A spark of optimism emerged when Bruno Fernandes and Manuel Ugarte rallied the team for a crucial point. Amorim promised that his squad would maintain its fighting spirit and commitment to controlling the game.
United now step onto the pitch with determination, hoping to break their winless streak against the Tractor Boys. In parallel, Sky has launched an unbeatable deal on its Essential TV and Sky Sports bundle, offering 1,400 live matches that every football fan will not want to miss.
