Marcus Rashford has become one of the first Manchester United players to react to Ruben Amorim's first training session as manager.

Amorim took charge at Carrington for the first time on Monday, having been forced to wait to step out onto the training pitch as the formalities of his work permit application were completed.

He had 10 senior players to work with on Monday, meaning several youth team stars - including 16-year-old centre-back Godwill Kukonki - were called up to the senior squad.

Amorim also gave an indication as to some of the personnel that could line up against Ipswich, with Luke Shaw lining up at left centre-back and Mason Mount positioned behind the main striker.

The striker in training was Rashford, with Mount joined by Amad Diallo in playing behind him.

Taking to Instagram, the England international made it clear what he thought of Amorim's first session in charge.

Rashford simply wrote: "Top session today," along with a starry-eyed emoji.

His positioning - although necessary due to Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee being away on international duty - may yet indicate Amorim's preferred tactical plan for his players.

According to GiveMeSport, the Portuguese boss is likely to choose Rashford as his starting striker on Sunday when United travel to Portman Road to take on Ipswich Town.

That would mean Hojlund and Zirkzee lining up on the bench after difficult starts to the season, with the pair scoring just two goals between them in a combined 18 Premier League appearances.

United are 13th in the Premier League table despite their comfortable 3-0 win over Leicester prior to the international break, with that game being interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy's last game in charge.

Van Nistelrooy has since left his previous role as assistant coach following talks with Amorim, and has been linked with the vacant managerial position at Championship side Coventry.
