With simply two Premier League wins because the begin of April, it appears solely a idiot would say that Manchester United have been bettering beneath Ruben Amorim…and but that is precisely what the stats recommend.
Whereas solely Tottenham have taken fewer factors of their final 10 video games, United’s underlying numbers recommend their performances have deserved extra and, if something, it is the gamers who’ve underperformed greater than Amorim and his much-maligned formation.
We have excluded penalties to point out how good United have been at creating and proscribing probabilities themselves, fairly than counting on opposition clumsiness or shirt-pulling like they did to score the winner against Burnley.
As you possibly can see, United have taken probably the most photographs within the Premier League within the final 10 video games, whereas solely rivals Manchester Metropolis – Sunday’s Premier League opponents – have confronted fewer among the many 17 sides ever-present throughout the timeframe.
The large downside has been scoring and saving them, with United’s gamers scoring seven objectives fewer than Premier League gamers have traditionally from the probabilities they’ve had and conceding 4 objectives extra.
