Amorim: I believe in Mount

Ruben Amorim rotated the starting XI considerably in our 3-2 victory over Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League last night. Mason Mount was one of the players to make the starting team with the midfielder looking to finally get a run of games for Manchester United after a difficult start to his career at the club. Speaking as his press conference ahead of the game against Everton, Amorim revealed he is a fan of Mount.

First thing, he is working really hard and then you have to understand he is human also. He wants this really bad and that is the most important thing. He proved to all of you that he is a talented player. He was a European champion also and we believe a lot in him. He has to stay fit, like all the guys in the team, they are quality players, but they have to improve and believe in themselves. Today he did a great job, and you see in some moments and details that you can see that Mason Mount is a proper footballer. We believe a lot in him, and I especially believe a lot in Mason Mount.

Amorim was also asked about compatriot Diogo Dalot who was a second half substitute for Tyrell Malacia on the left.

We have to rotate him sometimes because he always looks fresh, but he is not like that, he is not a machine. I think he plays better on the right and we will manage to put him on the right. He is a very good player, very powerful that can play both sides and nowadays, a player that can play on both sides is perfect because you can put him in different positions. I expect the same as last year that you saw. A great player that can help the team and he is really a team player, you can feel it in every way, he leads the game and he is very important for us.
