It has now been 572 in-play minutes since Bruno Fernandes registered a goal involvement for Manchester United.

One of many big problems. 😬

[Statman Dave @StatmanDave]

Manchester United have had fewer shots in the Champions League this season (30), than Club Brugge (32), Sabah (37), Fenerbaçhe (41) and AEK Athens (42).

Rough. 😬😬😬

Amad had the most touches in the opposition’s box (6) and completed the most take-ons (5) vs. Como, despite only coming on at half-time. He also assisted Man Utd’s only goal.

An impressive individual display. 🙌

Joshua Zirkzee is now halfway to matching his goal tally from last season.

2 in 2025/2026
1 in 2026/2027.

Bruno Fernandes created just 1 chance and had 0 shots in the first half vs. Como.

Completely wasted at ST. 🤷‍♂️

@RGamal 😂😂😂

[Statman Dave @StatmanDave]

First minute done and we’ve not conceded yet. Progress. 👊

[Statman Dave @StatmanDave]

Why are we playing Bruno Fernandes as a striker? The Premier League Player of the Year that ran the show at attacking midfield. This makes no sense.

[Statman Dave @StatmanDave]

Nico Paz has been directly involved in 7 goals in his last 8 matches (3G & 4A).

Lovely finish. 🧙‍♂️

[Statman Dave @StatmanDave]

Ah.

[Statman Dave @StatmanDave]

First minute done and we’ve not conceded yet. Progress. 👊
