Incredible Fred stat for Manchester United shows his improvement in recent matches
20.01.2022 - 19:15 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Fred has drastically improved his form over recent matches which has led to an incredible statistic.
Ralf Rangnick's returned to winning ways in the capital last night in a game of two halves at Brentford.
In the first half, United were once again performing below par but the hosts failed to capitalise.
Mason Greenwood men turned on the style in the second half though with Anthony Elanga, Mason Greenwood and Marcus Rashford all finding the net.
A late Ivan Toney goal was not enough to dampen the second 45 display and the Red Devils were able to send the away supporters home happy.
Fred's stellar pass to Elanga culminated in the opening goal at the Brentford Community Stadium and has added to an unbelievable statistic.
In his first 86 appearances in the Premier League, the Brazilian was involved in just four goals - one of those being an assist - according to OptaJoe.
However, in his last seven games in the competition he has managed to be involved in the same amount of goals - this time making three assists.
Manchester United return to action on Saturday afternoon when they face West Ham United at Old Trafford in a 3pm kick off.
