Ruben Amorim was encouraged by Manchester United's entertaining performance despite their defeat to Arsenal.

His side were beaten 1-0 at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon in their Premier League 2025/26 season opener.

Riccardo Calafiori's first half header proved to be the difference between the two sides.

It is already Amorim's 18th defeat in 43 matches as United boss since his appointment in November last year.

However, he was able to take positives from the match despite the losing start to the campaign.

Amorim handed debuts to his three attacking signings during the defeat with Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha starting, while Benjamin Sesko made a 25-minute cameo off the bench.

Following the match, Amorim revealed his takeaways from the performance.
