It wouldn’t be an understatement to say that Manchester United ’s season has fallen apart in recent months. The Reds have won just three of their last 13 matches across all competitions and are at risk of finishing outside the Premier League ’s top six for the first time since 2014.
An alarming issue across that run has been the number of goals Ralf Rangnick’s side have conceded. They shipped a combined 24 across the 13 matches which included conceding four on three separate occasions against Manchester City, Liverpool and Brighton.
This has inevitably led to an increased spotlight on the United defence, which has been considered a longstanding issue at the club, although goalkeeper David de Gea has also come under scrutiny during this time.
