Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim says he does not care what Liverpool counterpart Arne Slot says about his team and is capable of judging them himself.

In the aftermath of United's surprise 2-1 win at Anfield on 19 October, Slot said United defended in a low block and largely used long ball tactics.

Speaking on Friday, Slot said his comments were supposed to be complimentary but accepted that was not how they had been interpreted.

Asked for his response, Amorim was dismissive.

"Liverpool is in the past," he said. "I don't want to comment.

"I don't care what Slot is saying. Sometimes you need to adapt to the game.

"I don't need anyone to evaluate my team. I can evaluate my team and I am really clear that we should play better with the ball."
