Amorim: I'm still man to turn it around

RUBEN Amorim insists he is still the man to turn Manchester United around - despite them slumping to another dismal defeat at Brentford.

Amorim has taken just 34 points from 99 since taking charge of United nearly a year ago and has won just nine of his 33 Premier League games in charge.

United were 2-0 down after 20 minutes, with Brentford forward Igor Thiago scoring twice, before Benjamin Sesko pulled one back with his first goal since his £74million summer move.

Skipper Bruno Fernandes missed a penalty to make it 2-2, with Brentford sub Mathias Jensen scoring in added time to compound United's miserable afternoon.

Despite this latest setback, Amorim said he remains confident he can turn United's fortunes around and bring the glory days back to the club, despite their results suggesting otherwise.

"I'm always doing my job," said Amorim.
