United looked disjointed and dishevelled in the first half while the home side continued their revival under David Moyes, going ahead through Beto and Abdoulaye Doucoure.

Before taking these jobs midway through this season, both managers knew solving the problems at their respective clubs wasn’t going to be a quick fix.
