Man Utd finally proved they can play 'inspiring' football under Ruben Amorim in roller coaster Bournemouth draw - but entertainment can't mask Red Devils' dreadful home form

Scores one goal Matheus Cunha scored one goal to go with eight shots (three on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and three chances created in Monday's 4-4 draw against AFC Bournemouth.

Impact Cunha scored against Bournemouth on Monday with a close-range finish after a poor defensive clearance and could have added more, firing eight shots for the second straight match but repeatedly denied by the opposing goalkeeper. Back to full fitness after a recent knock, the Brazilian has now logged three consecutive appearances and should play a key role going forward, especially with Bryan Mbeumo and Amad Diallo set to depart for AFCON. He has recorded one goal, one assist and 19 shots over his last three Premier League appearances.

Assists against former club Matheus Cunha assisted once to go with eight shots (two on goal) and two chances created in Monday's 4-1 win versus Wolverhampton.

Impact Cunha assisted Bruno Fernandes for the opening goal of the game as his side took the lead against his former club. The attacker scored 15 goals and provided six assists for Wolves last year, but this was his first assist in 12 games at Manchester United, and he has only scored once this season, too. He took eight shots in the game but could only put two on target. This was double his previous high amount for the season.

Impact Cunha picked up a knock to the head in training and is now set for the sideline. The way Amorim spoke implies a concussion could be a concern for Cunha. There's no precise timeline on his return, meaning Joshua Zirkzee could be in for a run in the starting XI after leading the line in Monday's clash with Everton.

Head injury deemed minor Cunha is thought to have only suffered a minor head injury in training Saturday and is questionable for Monday's match against Everton, according to Alex Crook of Talk Sport.

Impact Cunha was a worry after a report was posted of the attacker missing an event due to a training injury, although it appears the injury is only minor after taking a knock to the head. This brings confidence that the forward could play Monday, although more information still has yet to be released. He would be expected to start, so this is something to watch, with Josua Zirkzee or Mason Mount as possible replacements.

Impact Cunha looks to be sweating his fitness heading into Monday's match, with the attacker feared to have suffered an injury in training. This has yet to be confirmed by the club, but with the match only a day away, most will figure he is set for some testing to decide his availability if the injury is true. He will be expected to see a starting role if fit, so this will be something to monitor, hopeful to receive more news on his status ahead of game time.
