Manchester United’s new-look attack delivers, with five players now reaching double figures in goals and assists, highlighting a major turnaround in their offensive power.
Manchester United are seeing clear results from their attacking rebuild, with Matheus Cunha becoming the latest player to hit a key milestone.
The Brazilian forward reached 10 goals and assists combined after scoring against Chelsea, joining Benjamin Šeško and Bryan Mbeumo in a productive front line.
This means United now has five players who have reached double figures in goals and assists this season, a strong indicator of balance in attack.
Alongside the new trio, Bruno Fernandes continues to lead by example with an impressive 26 goal contributions, while Casemiro has also reached the same milestone despite playing in a deeper role.
The numbers support the view that United made one of the most effective attacking rebuilds in the league last summer.
Compared to rivals, the impact stands out. Liverpool have not seen consistent returns from players like Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike or Alexander Isak. Chelsea expected more from Liam Delap, while Arsenal relies heavily on Viktor Gyökeres.
Other attacking names across the league have struggled for consistency. Eberechi Eze has shown flashes, while Noni Madueke has delivered limited output.
There is also a personal milestone in sight for Fernandes. The Portugal international is now two assists away from matching the Premier League single-season record of 20, held by Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne.
The comparison with De Bruyne continues, but the roles differ. Fernandes covers multiple areas of the pitch and contributes across all phases, which is reflected in his numbers.
For United, the message is clear. The attacking investment is paying off, and the team now carries threat from several sources.
