Ruben Amorim has expressed frustration with Manchester United's tendency to drop off after taking the lead, following their 2-2 draw at Tottenham. The Reds squandered a one-goal advantage in the second half, mirroring similar displays against Nottingham Forest and Brighton.
In an interview, Amorim pointed to a loss of intensity and a shift in mindset. 'When we are in advantage, we lose that thing of wanting to continue to press in the same way,' he said. 'We think about not suffering a goal, but our mindset should be to get another and kill the game.' He also noted injuries to key players Casemiro and Harry Maguire as contributing factors.
Defender Matthijs de Ligt echoed the manager's concerns, citing fatigue after the Spurs match. 'I felt the second half we were a little tired. We didn't get the chance to get out of our half,' he said.
United face Everton at Old Trafford on Monday, with Amorim aiming to address the recurring issue and secure a much-needed win.
