Manchester United suffered yet another defeat, losing to Tottenham 1-0, marking their eighth loss in 12 Premier League matches. The game showcased both teams' inconsistencies, with United's performance marred by missed chances and an injury crisis leading to youth players on the bench. Despite an early chance to change the game, United failed to capitalize, highlighting their ongoing struggles. Meanwhile, Tottenham, despite their own difficulties this season, managed to maintain a consistent record against United, securing victories in all three encounters this season, leaving United in a precarious 15th place.
It had been billed as a battle of the two laughing stocks of the so-called Big Six', a clash of two of the league's most inconsistent teams, sitting 14th and 15th respectively heading into the game.
Tottenham's sorry season is by now well-documented, but at least they have found consistency when facing United, who have lost to them in all three meetings.
Kids [have] less responsibility, less weight on their shoulders, said Amorim, trying to convince himself, more than anyone, that this could in fact prove a good thing.
