Manchester United have failed to keep a clean sheet in 11 consecutive away games after losing 2-0 at West Ham - the club's worst such streak since a run of 14 matches between April and December 2002.

In doing so, United have now conceded in 11 straight away matches – a run so bad that you have to go back 17 years to find a worse set of back-to-back results on the road.

Indeed, of the so-called 'big six' in the Premier League, United match Arsenal at the bottom of the rankings with just nine clean sheets since the beginning of the 2018-19 season. For perspective, Manchester City sit top with 32, while Liverpool are one spot behind with 22.
