Who is United’s marathon man since the restart?
Spare a thought for right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who tops the distance chart by running 43.4 kilometres across the four games. Last summer’s signing from Crystal Palace has not only been defending with his usual energy and conviction but he has been galloping forward to link up with the attack, and put in several telling crosses during Saturday’s 5-2 victory over Bournemouth.
It has been a lung-busting effort from the 22-year-old, who also assisted Mason Greenwood’s fine strike at Brighton & Hove Albion last week.
Furthermore, no Red has made more sprints than Wan-Bissaka over this period (47), although Luke Shaw and Marcus Rashford have registered the same amount, with Mason Greenwood only one behind. This was helped by our no.29 racking up 20 in the Bournemouth game alone, the most since the restart.
