Amorim's anxiety set tone for Utd's lack of composure

FOR the entire duration of a nerve-addled Europa League final, Ruben Amorim barely stood still.

He probably covered more ground than Casemiro.

And he did not know whether to have his hands in his pockets or out.

In fact, Amorim's anxiety was a tone-setter for a match that barely featured a confident passage of play from either side.

Amorim always cuts an obsessed figure in and around the technical area but this was different level.

And quite frankly, his uncertainty, his change of plan - leaving Alejandro Garnacho on the bench - was one of the key factors in this excruciating defeat for Manchester United.

The Portuguese head coach (top left) has been afforded considerable benefit of the doubt since his appointment at Old Trafford, but this cannot be dressed up as anything other than a failure on his part.

Let's put it this way, if Sir Jim Ratcliffe's brains trust does not have a thorough inquiry into this loss against a very average Spurs side, it is not doing its job.
