The Statistic That Proves Manchester United Are Monumentally Boring

If you are a Manchester United fan and like goals, then stay away from Old Trafford.

As Manchester United’s FA Cup match against Sheffield United lumbered to the half-time break in a predictably goalless state, Louis van Gaal’s men reached an extraordinary landmark.

Yes, that’s 10 consecutive games in which United have failed to score before half-time – and in only one of them did the opposition manage a goal, too.

And it’s left people in a very uncomfortable position: feeling sorry for the United fans.

Man Utd are so boring. This is ridiculous. I've never like Man Utd but they have never been boring. Their fans must be so fed up with it.

Well, not everyone was feeling sorry for them.

Must admit it is quite funny seeing United fans go through what every other normal club has for the past 20 years

But the United fans were certainly feeling sorry for themselves.

Boring!! Toothless !! Slow !! No shots on target in 45 mins!! But LVG will be happy, we passed the ball sideways 1000 times. #MUFC

How can a team with this much quality be this boring?

I have been a #mufc supporter for 47 years. This is the most boring football ever played. Enough is enough.I am going out

And the TV audience was turning off in droves.

TV stations have soon got to realise broadcasting Man Utd games is a huge mistake. We've turned over. Just spoke to friends who have too.

Someone pass the remote – we’re going to watch Ninja Warrior.
