Under new manager Jose Mourinho, Man Utd have made the worst start in the Premier League – if we look at the last few seasons under David Moyes followed by Dutch boss Louis Van Gaal.

The Red Devils have only managed to clinch two wins in their last ten Premier League games. They sit sixth in the table with just 20 points after 13 games. Man Utd are 11 points behind league leaders Chelsea and eight points short of a Champions League spot.
