3) Danny Welbeck and Tom Cleverley accounted for all of United’s five shots on target.
4) Centre-back Phil Jones made five tackles and four interceptions for United, but his partner Jonny Evans didn’t make a single one of either.
5) Tom Cleverley made 82 passes, more than any other player on the pitch.
