Ruben Amorim has said Bruno Fernandes will continue as Manchester United’s penalty taker despite missing two of the three awarded the team this season.

Fernandes missed from the spot in the 1-1 draw at Fulham and the 3-1 defeat at Brentford, scoring in the 3-2 win over Burnley. Amorim said: “Yes, he’s the main taker. I think he has 70 penalties and he misses nine – two with me.”
