Loads of Manchester United fans have been reacting to a shocking statistic that emerged from Tuesday’s defeat to Manchester City, as the Red Devils went over 135 minutes without registering a shot on target.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side failed to muster up a single shot on goal against Wolves in the FA Cup on Saturday evening, per BBC.
At half-time in Tuesday’s Carabao Cup defeat to Manchester City, they still hadn’t managed to find the target, leading to this rather stunning stat.

Led by Marcus Rashford, the performance in the second half of the 3-1 loss was slightly improved, and the force-field around the goal was eventually broken, but that hasn’t stopped fans from crucifying Solskjaer and his tactics.

If Ole loves this club then just walk away, the job is just too big for you, take Phelan & Carrick with you please, us fans are suffering now
