Evans: We need to be patient

Jonny Evans believes Manchester United need to be more patient at Old Trafford if they are to stop conceding the kind of goals that sent them spinning to New Year’s Day defeat against Tottenham.

The 2-1 reverse was United’s sixth loss of David Moyes’ debut campaign as manager.

And whilst most of the post-game analysis centred around referee Howard Webb’s failure to award a penalty after Hugo Lloris had taken out Ashley Young near the end, it ignored the concession of two more needless goals that left United chasing the game.
