Manchester United’s loss to West Ham highlighted their frailty in the month of May as well as in away fixtures this season, giving coach Erik Ten Hag more things to consider in his approach for the rest of this season as well as next season.
The loss was the Red Devils' fourth consecutive defeat in the month of May, as they also failed to score in a fourth straight fixture in the bogey month.
It was also Manchester United’s eighth away defeat in the 2022/23 campaign, which represents their joint-most defeats away from home in a single Premier League season, equalling the eight away defeats in the 2021/22 and 2015/16 seasons.
