"Another international break has given everyone time to reflect on the first 11 games of the Premier League season, and, safe to say, it's been a tale of two halves for Manchester United in more than one way. Having won just two and lost three of their opening six league games, Man Utd have since gone on a five-game unbeaten run, which has relieved the mounting pressure on Ruben Amorim and put the team in contention for a crack at the top four."
"Both are among the five sides Amorim's men have beaten in the league and each clash saw United lead 2-0 at half-time, albeit the Blues were down to 10 men inside five minutes. Brighton were also two goals down at the break at Old Trafford in October. In fact, Amorim's side have led at half-time in all five games they have won so far this season,"
Manchester United began the season with two wins and three defeats in their opening six league matches, then produced a five-game unbeaten run that eased pressure on Ruben Amorim. The team repeatedly leads at half-time in victories and some draws, yet often fails to sustain performance across a full 90 minutes, creating a stark first-half versus second-half discrepancy supported by statistics. Late goals have become decisive, producing both winners and equalisers in recent fixtures. United sit seventh, narrowly outside the top four, while inconsistency between halves remains the principal barrier to a sustained top-four challenge.
