Amad Diallo will miss the Brentford - Manchester United match due to the death of a family member, revealed Ruben Amorim
Manchester United visits Brentford's ground, on the seventh matchday of the Premier League. In preview to the match, Ruben Amorim - who has numbered days according to Ben Foster - revealed several absences, including Amad Diallo, who will miss the match due to the unexpected death of a family member.
"Lisandro Martínez [recovering from injury] is out. Casemiro also can't play because he saw the red card [against Chelsea]. Amad [Diallo] is not here with us because a family member of his died. We will give him all the support and understand that he needed to go home. Mazraoui is also out and should not return until the international break", said Amorim, in the preview of the match.
Diallo deleted all the photos from social networks and the former Sporting explained the situation: "I say the same thing to my players: turn off social media. These days it's the price to pay. The most important thing for Amad is the club and real-life friends. We are here for him. It's a difficult time and in this context the next game is not important. We can win without Amad and we want to win for him".
"I think we have been playing well, but it's normal that the fans don't know what will happen in the next game. Honestly, I have an idea, but I don't know how it will go and I'm the coach of this team. The best way to deal with this is to face each game as if it were the last. I understand what the fans feel, so let's start changing that feeling to do what we have to do on the field", he added.
"It's very important to get a good momentum. We talked about this at the end of the game. We urgently need to win, no matter how. It's going to be very complicated. Every time we start preparing the game, we look at the opponent and realize it's going to be tough. I have that feeling. But in my opinion, we can't control the game. The most important thing is to start the game the same way we started against Chelsea and Burnley. In this type of games we need to be very focused", concluded Ruben Amorim.
