Manchester United has had a slow start to the season under Erik ten Hag, struggling to find their form in the early matches.
Their much-needed win against Southampton on Saturday saw them score three goals without reply, helping to cover up their lackluster performances in the first few games.
For the most part, United’s attackers have been out of form, with Amad Diallo being the standout player in the forward line.
Amad has been the best player in United’s forward areas, and the statistics back up this claim.
According to Sky Sports, Amad leads in many key attacking metrics for Ten Hag’s team in the Premier League, showcasing his impressive start individually.

Amad’s performance stands out with 23 touches in the opposition box, 15 shot-creating actions, and creating the most chances for United (10). He also leads in possession won in the final third (4) and passes into the penalty area (10).
After successful loan spells at Rangers and Sunderland, Amad, 22 years old, is ready for a breakthrough season at Old Trafford.
Despite limited appearances for United, he has made a significant impact since joining from Atalanta in 2021.
His early success is likely to earn him a new contract and increase his playing time significantly this season.
United fans remember his memorable extra-time winner against Liverpool last season, and they anticipate more magic from the winger in the future.
