Hectic schedule 'no excuse,' says United's new boss as he eyes win against Everton
-
While Manchester United have little time to prepare for Ruben Amorim's first English Premier League game at Old Trafford, the new manager insisted there will be "no excuses" if his team do not beat Everton on Dec 1.
While their opponents have had a full week to prepare since their 0-0 draw with Brentford on Nov 23, United were in action in midweek in a breathless 3-2 Europa League win over Bodo/Glimt, their second game in five days.
"It is what it is," Amorim said of the challenging schedule.
"We will rotate players and we will be ready. Against Bodo/Glimt, we have to use four subs to manage the fitness, not the game. We manage the fitness. We already know that it will be like that, so no excuse. We should be ready for Sunday and we have to win."
The Red Devils drew 1-1 at Ipswich Town on Amorim's debut with the club on Nov 24, and they will next face another team battling relegation in Sean Dyche's Everton.
