For all of Andre Onana’s errors last season – having made three of them leading to a goal in the Premier League – it was arguably at the other end of the pitch where Manchester United’s problems lay in 2024/25.
Indeed, the Red Devils ended the campaign having just scored 44 top-flight goals, with rivals – and champions – Liverpool having reached almost double that tally (86) on their way to title glory.
Such woes were notably epitomised in Erik ten Hag’s final game, with the Old Trafford side slipping to a 2-1 defeat to West Ham United on the road, as Diogo Dalot inexplicably missed an open goal for the profligate visitors.
Things didn’t exactly improve even amid Ruben Amorim’s arrival, with United looking particularly limp in the 1-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League final, having failed to convert any of their three ‘big chances’.
