Ruben Amorim only has himself to blame: Dismal results and dogmatic approach cost him the Man Utd job, not the Red Devils' board
Dominic Solanke - Starting to train with ball Solanke (ankle) was claimed to have bee training with a ball Monday, according to manager Thomas Frank, per Alasdair Gold of Football London.
Impact Solanke is still working his way back from a lengthy absence due to an ankle injury, with the forward only playing twice all season. However, improvements are being made, as the forward has started to train with a ball, just needing to join his teammates. With a return expected to end January, the forward should appear in team training anytime now.

Destiny Udogie - Starting to train Udogie (strain) is beginning to train, according to manager Thomas Frank. "Destiny is training and looking better, so that is positive."
Impact Udogie has been training individually and has taken another step this week, with the defender continuing to train and progress in the right direction. However, a return date remains up in the air, with the club yet to announce his return with a busy schedule at the moment. Djed Spence continues to start in his absence, although it is yet to be known if he will continue in that spot once Udogie returns.

Mohammed Kudus - More than likely out Wednesday Kudus (undisclosed) is set for further assessment and is likely out for Wednesday's match against Bournemouth, according to manager Thomas Frank. "Mo is going for a scan at 1pm to...
Impact Kudus was taken off the field in the first half of Sunday's match and is now set for some testing on his injury, with the full extent still unknown. This is a major concern for the club after the sale of Brennan Johnson, a bit lower in the attacking department and potentially losing one of their top players this season for a bit of time. The matches continue to come think and thin, and with another contest Wednesday against Bournemouth, he seems more than likely to miss out, leaving Randal Kolo Muani or Xavi Simons entering the starting XI in his place.

Pedro Porro - Creates three chances Sunday Porro had one shot (zero on goal), nine crosses (two accurate) and one corner in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Sunderland.
Impact Porro played like Spurs' best player Sunday, contributing well on both ends of the pitch. He recorded nine crosses and created three chances on the attack as he stepped seemlessly into the primary creative force following the early departure of Mohammed Kudus (undisclosed). He played well on the defensive end too as he recorded four tackles, four clearances, one interception and one blocked shot as he played the full 90 minutes in his eighth consecutive match.

Mathys Tel - Five crosses Sunday Tel registered two shots (one on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Sunderland.
Impact Tel cracked the starting XI for the first time since Oct. 19 Sunday, stepping in for the suspended Xavi Simons. He recorded five crosses and took two shots, but he never really felt like a threat to score or assist a goal versus a stout Sunderland defense. He added two clearances before he was subbed off in the 88th minute for Dane Scarlett.

Micky Van de Ven - Assists in Sunday's draw van de Ven assisted once to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Sunderland.
Impact van de Ven recorded his first assist of the season Sunday as his shot following a corner was redirected into the back of the net by Ben Davies to take the 1-0 lead in the first half. It was the only chance he created in the match and he also put one shot on target for the first time since Oct. 26. He played well on the defensive end too as he recorded five clearances, two tackles, one interception and one blocked shot in his full 90 minutes of action.
