I feel like we have already seen a different Manchester United under Ruben Amorim, but some issues are going to take longer to resolve.
The international break meant he only had a couple of training sessions with some of his players before facing Ipswich in his first game in charge, but there were still some patterns of play that looked promising.
You could see an obvious balance to their team in Sunday’s draw following the switch to his 3-4-3 system and there were certain things that he had clearly worked on and asked them to do.
Amorim is trying to make United more composed and measured in possession, but there were also times when they passed forward quickly and with purpose.
Overall, they looked more confident and courageous with the ball than they have done recently but, on the downside, it was still too easy to play through them when they were without it.
That allowed Ipswich to grow into the game and, with the chances they had, they will probably be disappointed not to have won.
