Manchester United's poor start to the season has left the team with just five points from five games, matching its worst Premier League debut. The team's sole victory came in a 1-1 draw against Fulham in the fifth round of the Premier League, as reported by Reuters. This poor start is reminiscent of the team's performance under Louis van Gaal in the 2014/15 season, when they also secured just one win in their first five Premier League games.
The team's poor results are also reflected in physical data, with Manchester United ranking last among the 20 Premier League teams in four key metrics: distance covered at high intensity, total time spent running at high intensity, total number of sprints, and total time spent sprinting. The team will have some time to regroup before their next Premier League match against Tottenham, who have also struggled to find their footing at the start of the season.
