Manchester United will register their lowest number of wins in a Premier League season even if they beat Crystal Palace in their final game on Sunday.
Jose Mournho’s side were held to a 0-0 draw at Southampton on Wednesday, meaning they have 17 wins in the top flight to their name this campaign.
They last had fewer wins in a season (16) in 1990-91, two years before the Premier League was formed.
United
have drawn 15 league matches in 2016-17, which is the most for the club
since 1991-92, with six of those stalemates ending goalless.
The
Old Trafford club can finish no higher than sixth this term, although
they can follow February’s EFL Cup win with Europa League glory if they
beat Ajax next Wednesday.Victory over Ajax would secure Champions League qualification for 2017-18.
