United's seven-game unbeaten run ended with Wednesday's 2-0 loss at Arsenal.
And of course that was new boss Ruben Amorim's first defeat.
United have won six and drawn the other game in their last seven home encounters in all competitions.
And another big positive would seem to be the fact they've racked up 20 goals in those matches - letting in just six.
United have kept the memory of much-loved receptionist Kath Phipps at the front of their thoughts on matchday after she died this week aged 85.
The club had shared the news of her death by describing her as: "friend, confidant and treasured colleague" - adding "United will never be the same".
Famous past and present figures around Old Trafford, like David Beckham and Wayne Rooney, paid tribute.
And this afternoon the club posted on social media: "Thinking of you today, Kath."
Ruben Amorim’s hopes of landing RB Leipzig’s David Raum may rest on the man he replaced at Old Trafford, writes PHIL THOMAS.
A new left-back is top of Amorim’s January wish list, and the £35 million-rated German international, 26, ticks every box.
But Manchester United’s new manager could face a major stumbling block if Marco Rose gets the bullet.
The Leipzig boss is on the brink after a string of poor results.
And Erik ten Hag – the man axed as United chief in October – is the hot tip to replace him.
If the Dutchman IS appointed, he will have a big say in transfer dealings, and is unlikely to sanction the sale of a key figure – especially to the employers who axed him.
