Ruben Amorim admitted that he had trouble identifying why he had no constant impact during his mandate as Manchester United after his team again seemed far from being convincing when they came from behind Save a point against Everton.
United came from two goals to save a draw at the Goodison park through the second half goals of Bruno Fernandes and Manuel Ugarte after Beto and Abdoulaye Doucoure gave the Toffees a deserved advance.
A dramatic end of the match saw an Everton resurgence denied a penalty in time of time by Var, to the chagrin of the boss David Moyes.
It is unlikely that the result will please one or the other manager. For Moyes, it will seem that two points have dropped, while for Amorim, despite a well-improved performance after the break, the score will not do much to alleviate the mounting pressure on the Portuguese coach.

United won only four of the 15 championship games since Amorim took care of in November, and he admitted that he had trouble determining the reason for the form of stuttering of his team.
“I don’t know. If I knew I would change it,” said Amorim.
“We have to continue thinking about the next match and everything we do during the week, we have to use it in the game. And if we do it, we are close to winning matches as we have done in the second period today. If we don’t, we are not going to win. »»
The boss of the Red Devils also said that his team “did not exist” in the first half against Everton, but was quick to highlight their improved performance after the break.
Amorim added: “We did not exist in the first half. We know this team [Everton] are really good on the second balls and we have suffered two goals like this, on the second balls. We were sweet during the first half but we managed to recover.
“I don’t just want to say the negative parts. The second half was so better. In the end, we were almost winning the match.
“Right now, we have to focus day by day. We have to survive this season, it’s clear, then think in advance. »»
The next step for United is the visit to the city of Ipswich in difficulty on Wednesday. The boys of tractors are currently under the management of Kieran McKenna, formerly within the staff of Old Trafford coaches.
