RUBEN Amorim accepts Manchester United "cannot run away" from the bad results they have suffered at the start of the season, but insists the system he plays is not to blame.

- BY JAMIE GARDNER

United are 14th after six games with two wins and a draw to their name, and head into Saturday's match at home to Sunderland with Amorim again under pressure after a 3-1 loss to Brentford last weekend.

United have taken just 34 points from 33 topflight games under Portuguese head coach Amorim, and are yet to win consecutive topflight matches.

Defeat to fifth-placed Sunderland heading into the October international break will inevitably turn up the heat on Amorim, though sources close to the club insist United have not - and are not - lining up a successor.

Criticism is coming from a number of quarters, including United old boys such as Wayne Rooney and Gary Neville, and much of it centres on Amorim's refusal to vary his 3-4-3 system.

He is adamant however, that it is small "details" which have cost United, rather than the system he plays.
