VAN OFF WITH RED DEVILS IN RUUD HEALTH

Interim head coach Van Nistelrooy will hand over the reins to Ruben Amorim this week and wait to find out if he still has a job.

He will leave behind a team unbeaten in his four games, and with some momentum and goals behind them at last.

Bruno Fernandes opened the scoring inside 20 minutes with a delightful finish, to celebrate his 250th United appearance in style.

An own-goal from Victor Kristiansen doubled their advantage, before substitute Alejandro Garnacho sealed Leicester's fifth league defeat of the season with a stunning strike.

Van Nistelrooy had dropped Garnacho in favour of Amad Diallo, who scored twice in the win against PAOK in the Europa League last Thursday.

Centre-back pair Lisandro Martinez and Matthijs de Ligt were also recalled.
