Ruben Amorim has warned his Manchester United stars that they are 'far from perfection' despite a five-game unbeaten run suggesting this squad has turned a corner.
Monday marks one year to the day that Amorim took charge of his first game as United head coach, drawing 1-1 away to Ipswich Town.
Now, ahead of a meeting at Old Trafford against Everton , Amorim is acutely aware that United still have a long way to go to restore themselves as a big player at the top end of the Premier League .
'I think we are better, I think we are in a better moment,' Amorim said.
'I think we train with a better intensity, I think we are doing the things in a better way, but we are not perfect, and when I watch trainings, when I watch games, we are far from perfection.
'We can be perfect in the position, in the intensity, all these things, and we need to work that in training.

'So to be really honest with you, we are better but far from perfection, and we need to do that, especially to win in this league, we need to be perfect in everything, to have a little bit of luck, to try to get to the top of the table, so we are far from the perfect environment.'
The dramatic 2-2 draw away to Tottenham Hotspur before the international break means that Amorim and his players have not suffered defeat since September 27 away to Brentford.
Conversely, they have taken two points from a possible six in their last two matches.
'We need to think to be six games unbeaten, but then unbeaten is not enough,' he added.
'I came from these last two games, but especially the last one, very frustrated. So for us it's not enough, in this club it doesn't matter at the moment, it's not enough to be unbeaten. Unbeaten is not everything.'
