#2 Defensive record
Manchester United have the fifth-best defensive record in the whole of Europe, while also having the second-best in the Premier League.
That is some incredible achievement, given that Mourinho does not have the personnel he wishes to have in the heart of United’s defence.
Under Louis van Gaal, Man United’s defence was strong and they were not ones to leak a heap of goals. However, under the Portuguese boss, he has taken that to a new level and made the back four a very formidable force.
Arsenal will struggle to get runners in-behind the wonderfully athletic Eric Bailly, who covers every piece of grass with absolute ease.
