Manchester United's players began to look weary at the business end of the season, with a gruelling schedule finally taking its toll.
The 2022/23 Premier League campaign began earlier and finished later than usual to accommodate the winter World Cup in Qatar and Erik ten Hag wasn't afraid to regularly point out just how absurd and demanding the fixture list had become.
United took part in four different competitions and they reached the final of the Carabao Cup and FA Cup, meaning by the end of their season, they had played 62 games, which was 13 more fixtures than had been played in 2021/22.
