Ruben Amorim has revealed he opted for a back four to cause Newcastle 'more danger' after Manchester United secured all three points on Boxing Day. 'It is a very important moment for any kid, he's (Fletcher's) going to hear a lot from his father, Darren. We have a squad and we tried to choose the best players to play. 'Clean sheet, back four, Kobbie Mainoo is injured - we don't need a press conference I think all the subjects... we can go home to enjoy Boxing Day, I think.' Tonight's victory, in the absence of Bruno Fernandes, sees United move up to fifth in the table, level on points with fourth-placed Chelsea.
