Manchester United in danger of worst ever month of conceding in Premier League

Manchester United are in danger of completing their worst ever month of conceding in the Premier League.

The Red Devils have let in 10 league goals so far in October, drawing 1-1 with Everton and losing 4-2 and 5-0 to Leicester City and Liverpool respectively.

The results have left Ole Gunnar Solskjaer under pressure as speculation mounts about the Norwegian's future at Old Trafford.

Man United have only ever conceded more than 10 Premier League goals in a calendar month on two previous occasions, letting in 11 in October 1996 and December 2018; they have never shipped 12.

The 20-times champions travel to Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday hoping not to break the unwanted record, with Solskjaer also fighting to save his job.

Spurs drew a blank in a 1-0 defeat to West Ham United last weekend, but netted three against Newcastle United a fortnight ago.
