The outgoing year became one of the worst in the history of English Manchester United in terms of the number of lost matches.

In total, in 2023, MU lost to their opponents in all tournaments 21 times. The last of the defeats of the "Mancunians" was recorded yesterday, in the match of the 20th round of the championship of England with "Nottingham Forest" (1:2).

Such a thing with Manchester United last happened more than half a century ago - 51 years ago, in 1972. At the same time, the famous team from Manchester lost more matches per calendar year only three times: 28 defeats in 1930, 25 - in 1972 and 24 - in 1921.
