Brentford displayed an exceptional performance against Manchester United, with 31 shots on goal, 85 touches in the opposition box, and 34 crosses. They had 85 touches in the United box, just two off the record set by Manchester City. This was the first time since 2015 that Brentford had more than 30 shots in a game. Despite facing 197 shots in the Premier League this year, United only conceded 40 goals, with a season's expected goals (xG) at 50.8. Three wins this season by more than a single goal highlight the unsustainable nature of this version of Manchester United.
