But Amorim, having led the Red Devils to a first victory at Liverpool’s ground since 2016, said discussion of the match was “not important” as it is “in the past”.
“I understand everything. I am really pleased that the team can play different games.”
Of the victory over Liverpool, which marked the first time United had won back-to-back Premier League games during his near-year-long tenure, Amorim added: “It was an important win, but I was the first one to say that we need to play better with the ball.
“So, I don’t care what Slot is saying, what people are saying about our team.
“I can evaluate my team and I am really clear that we should play better with the ball. We are going to try to do that in this game.”

Just one point and league placing separates Amorim’s ninth-placed troops from their visitors, who are unbeaten in their last four outings but are yet to keep a clean sheet in the Premier League this season.
A third win in a row for the Red Devils meanwhile, would cement the team’s place in the top half of the table heading into November and strengthen hope around the club that the Liverpool win might serve as a turning point.
