Manchester United's attacking inefficiency this season have led to a poor Premier League start, despite leading the league in one metric.
Manchester United lead the Premier League with 167 shots through their first nine games this season despite sitting in 17th place. Michael Carrick's side has struggled with attacking efficiency, converting their league-high shot tally into just 10 goals, leaving them tied on points with 18th-placed Crystal Palace.
According to the report, 45% of United's attempts have been from outside the box, the highest proportion in the division. The Red Devils have also hit the woodwork seven times, joint-most alongside Manchester City, while an ankle injury to striker Benjamin Sesko has further limited their finishing power.
