Manchester United records that may never be broken

• 87 years of having Academy graduates in the squad: Dating back to 30th October 1937, Manchester United have had an academy graduate in every single matchday squad since a staggering run of 87 years.
• Fewest goals conceded at home in a single season: Manchester United incredibly conceded just four goals at Old Trafford throughout the 1994/95 campaign, which also happened to be the final 42-game season.
• Longest run without conceding a goal (1,113 minutes): The 2008/09 season saw Manchester United fare slightly better than the aforementioned 1994/95 campaign, and they even had another dizzying defensive record to match. Between November 15th and February 18th, Edwin van Der Sar managed to keep 14 consecutive clean sheets, setting a record for the longest run without conceding a goal - a total of 1,113 minutes, which still stands today.
• Trick of league titles (twice): Pep Guardiola and Manchester City may have become the first side to win four consecutive top-flight titles, but their neighbours still hold an almighty feat when it comes to winning the league trophy on the bounce. In the years between 1998 and 2001, and then again between 2006 and 2009, Manchester United achieved a three-peat of league titles on two separate occasions.
• Invincible away from home: Manchester United’s covid-stricken 2020/21 campaign saw them set a new record for the longest unbeaten run away from home in the Premier League.
• League victory with the fewest points: Title winners now must aspire to hit at least 90 points or more if they are to clinch the league, but the 1996/97 campaign saw United win with a mere 75 points.
• Most Premier League titles - 13: Manchester United have lifted 13 Premier League titles, which is five more than the next-nearest Manchester City who are slowly but surely catching up to their neighbours.
• Longest unbeaten run by an English club in the UEFA Champions League: Although another of their eternal rivals Liverpool are the most successful English side in Europe, Manchester United still hold the longest unbeaten run in the continent’s elite club competition. From 2007 to 2009 - a period in which they lifted the Champions League and reached another final, United went 25 games unbeaten.
• Never lost a home game when leading at halftime since 1984: Manchester United have managed to keep an astonishing home record intact since 1984. When leading at half-time at Old Trafford, they have not gone on to lose, a record that has stood since a defeat to Ipswich on May 7th 1984.
