We look Manchester united challenges

We look at the issues facing Manchester United after their goalless draw with Burnley at Old Trafford.

United were totally dominant against Sean Dyche's side but missed a host of chances, and their misery was compounded when Jose Mourinho was sent to the stands and Ander Herrera was red carded.

The Red Devils are now eight points off the top of the table having only won one of their last six Premier League games. Here, we look at some of the areas for concern…

After scoring four goals in his first four appearances for Manchester United, Zlatan Ibrahimovic now has one in his last nine.

The statistics do not make pretty reading for the big Swede, who failed to find the net against Burnley despite attempting 12 shots on goal - the most by any player in a single Premier League game since 2011.

Burnley goalkeeper Tom Heaton played his part with some fine saves, but Ibrahimovic's profligacy is a growing concern. The 35-year-old has missed more clear-cut chances (eight) than any other Premier League player this season, with the latest being his close-range miscue from Paul Pogba's 89th-minute cross at Old Trafford on Saturday.
