Ruben Amorim spots worrying trend in Man Utd team after just 90 minutes of football under him and every player is guilty

Ruben Amorim took charge of his first match as Manchester United boss against Ipswich Town.

Manchester United's new boss Ruben Amorim has picked out a worrying trend after drawing his first match in charge against Ipswich Town.

Amorim's first match as the Red Devils' new head coach ended in disappointment after Omari Hutchinson's long-range effort cancelled out Marcus Rashford's second-minute goal, earning the newly promoted side a 1-1 draw.

In truth, the hosts could have won the match but for several fine saves from United goalkeeper Andre Onana.

On the back of the result, United stay in the bottom half of the Premier League table as they currently sit 12th, 15 points off leaders Liverpool.

Speaking after the match, Amorim was happy with the players' application but picked out one thing that he was not too satisfied with.

The 39-year-old revealed that his players were 'thinking too much' during the match in a bid to 'cope' with instructions given to them in training.

Amorim said: "They tried to do it, that's the main point. We have a lot to improve, but they tried. This is the first point; the most important point.

"They were thinking too much during the game, trying to cope with everything we said during training. But it was [just] two trainings."

He continued: "We could win this game, but also Onana did great saves. It's always tough to play in this league and we will improve in the future. A goalkeeper is so important in one team. When we needed, Onana was there.

"With the ball, he was very good. He didn't use all the time long balls – he tried to connect – so it was a great game for Andre."

Looking ahead to the future, Amorim has stated his aim to use every minute of training time in order to install the new style of play into his squad.

The Portuguese added: "That is the goal [to use the time on the training pitch]. We have to use every minute to work with the team. Everybody has to play with this schedule and we will do that.

"Everybody is going to play... We have to, all together, try to find ways to win games, to win time and to improve the team."

On Thursday, Amorim will get his first taste of taking charge at Old Trafford when United take on Norwegian outfit Bodo/Glimt in the UEFA Europa League.
