India then beat Korea 3-1 before eking out a narrow 2-1 win over arch-rivals Pakistan.

United have lost six of their 11 league games under Amorim so far (won three, drawn two), falling down to 13th in the Premier League table before the trip to Craven Cottage.

However, they were 2-1 winners over Rangers in midweek, thanks to Fernandes' late winner in the Europa League encounter at Old Trafford.

Amorim reserved special praise for the Portugal international, lauding the quality and fight of Fernandes in a team devoid of much confidence.

"He is a top player and people talk a lot about his frustration and [they] always talk a lot about his arms in the air," he said on Friday. "Sometimes, it is not a good thing to see, but you have to see the other side.

"When we are under pressure,mnl777 he is always the guy that wants the ball, and he is always available. That is so important, especially in the Premier League. Then, he can run, and he runs a lot, he can fight a lot.

"He has two sides and I have to help him manage both situations. We are lucky to have a player like Bruno Fernandes.

"Sometimes, he makes mistakes, like me last week, but he is really important and he has passion. This is so important to be a football player."
