Fans stunned by what Man United did in warm-up before Ruben Amorim's first game

Manchester United's pre-match warm-up ahead of Ruben Amorim's first game in charge had plenty of fans stunned.

United travelled to Portman Road to play Ipswich Town in Amorim's first Premier League fixture after he signed a contract until 2027 to replace Erik ten Hag.

The 39-year-old was not afraid to ring plenty of changes and put his stamp on the side. He opted for his preferred 3-4-3 formation for his first XI and there were notable position tweaks, with Noussair Mazraoui filling in as a centre-back in a back three and Amad Diallo playing as a right wing-back.

The change worked wonders as straight from the off Diallo embarked on a mazy run down the right and set up Marcus Rashford, back playing through the middle, and he made it a dream start just 80 seconds in.

But United's warm-up brought plenty of intrigue. In a rarely seen action in the Premier League, the Red Devils practiced attacking and defending set pieces as staff watched on and coached.

Andre Onana was in goal as players flooded the 18-yard box and prepared for situations to come in the game.

Nathan Salt of the Daily Mail noticed the change, taking to social media to write: "Willing to be corrected but don’t remember United training set pieces before a match in the usual warm-up…"

And plenty of United supporters also weighed in with their thoughts on Amorim switching up from pre-match rondos.

One observed: "Nope all the years I've been going games that's something I've never seen so that's interesting."

A second said: "This is deffo interesting."

A third wrote: "Usually practice crosses but this is new."

Another user responded, commenting: "Also an odd one just before kick-off. Like me revising for my law module exam at Cardiff in the last 5 minutes outside the exam hall."
