The start of the 2023\/2024 season for Erik ten Hag&#8217;s team has been disappointing to say the least and the defeat to Nottingham Forest (1-2) on Saturday evening further soured the mood for the Red Devils.<\/p>\n<p>This particular loss was the ninth since the beginning of the campaign in the Premier League, and it occurred after only 20 rounds. United had suffered as many defeats in the entire previous season. For the first time since the distant 1989\/1990 season, the Red Devils have lost so many times in the first 20 matches of the league, setting an unwanted record in the Premier League in its current format (established on May 27, 1992).<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Manchester United\u2019s December record:<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udfdf\ufe0f 8 games<br \/>\n\u2705 2 wins<br \/>\n\ud83e\udd1d 1 draw<br \/>\n\u274c 5 defeats<br \/>\n\u26bd 6 goals scored<br \/>\n\ud83e\udd45 12 goals conceded<\/p>\n<p>Disastrous month. \ud83d\ude36 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/i7y8e7odIe\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/i7y8e7odIe<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Statman Dave (@StatmanDave) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/StatmanDave\/status\/1741183242907046325?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">December 30, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>In the calendar 2023 alone, Manchester United suffered 21 defeats in all competitions.
