Amorim's side finished last season down in 15th place in the Premier League table and without a trophy, after losing to Tottenham in the Europa League final. As a result, the Red Devils will not play European football next season and will instead focus on trying to rise up the table and claim glory in the domestic cups.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Manchester United kicked off their pre-season campaign with a drab goalless draw against Leeds United on Saturday in a game that saw new signings Matheus Cunha and Diego Leon debut. Bryan Mbeumo is also set to strengthem Amorim's side this summer, leaving Amad to look ahead and predict where his side might finish.
WHAT AMAD SAID
He told reporters: “A good season will be top five. I hope we can achieve that top five at the end of the season because I think we would deserve it. I think the fans have to be patient with us. There’s a new manager, with new players and new tactics, so we know last season wasn’t really good for the team. But I think this season we will win a lot with him and I hope we are going to achieve a lot of good things by the end of the season.”
