Manchester United failed to secure a win in the sixth round of the English Premier League, drawing 1-1 with Tottenham. This result marks a historically poor beginning to the season for Michael Carrick's team, which has managed to collect only six points from their first six fixtures.
Following this result, Manchester United sits in 12th place in the league table. The statistic represents the club's worst start in 40 years. The last time the Red Devils had a lower points tally after six games was in the 1986/87 season, when they had secured just four points.
Carrick's squad now faces a challenging schedule. They are set to play Atletico in the Champions League on October 13, followed by a domestic clash against Leeds on October 18.
