Manchester United's struggles this season have been well-documented, but a closer look at their half-time performances reveals a shocking trend.
According to recent data, Man United have surrendered a one-goal lead four times this season, resulting in a loss of eight points.
These blunders have occurred in matches against Wolves, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Southampton, with the team failing to capitalize on their early leads.
As a result, Man United would be sitting third in the Premier League standings with 26 points if matches ended at half-time, just three behind Liverpool.
Meanwhile, Aston Villa are also struggling with their half-time performances, with the team sitting 15th in the table despite having 26 points.
Arsenal, on the other hand, would be sitting 11th with just 16 points if matches ended at half-time, three less than their actual tally.
