Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim said he is not concerned about his job at the end of another day when a previous step forward was followed by another one back.
The optimism generated by the victory over Chelsea seven days ago was lost in a 3-1 defeat at Brentford that keeps United firmly in the bottom half of the Premier League.
United have collected 34 points from Amorim's 33 league games in charge and have still to win successive matches.
The promised improvement after last season's woeful 15th-place finish is yet to materialise, and afterwards Amorim was forced to answer more questions about his future.
"I am never concerned about my job - I am not that kind of guy," he told BBC Match of the Day.
