Ralph Lonnick led United to an exciting victory over Tottenham, marking his 100 days as United's interim manager – but the team's form is still up and down under his control.
Cristiano Ronaldo's brilliant hat-trick helped United beat Tottenham 3-2, and it was also Ronnick's ninth victory in 19 games. But the current 47% win rate is lower than that of several previous Managers of Manchester United.
Lonnick: 9 wins, 8 draws and 2 losses, 28 goals scored and 19 conceded
Since taking over Manchester United, Lonnick has remained unbeaten in his first five games. These include a smouldering draw with Newcastle and a draw with the youngsters of the Swiss Super League in the final round of the Champions League group stage. But then United lost 1-0 to Wolves, and his other defeat came in a crushing defeat in last week's derby against City.
United have scored first in 14 of the 19 games he has coached, including 13 of the first 15, and nine consecutive games from the FA Cup win over Aston Villa in January to the 4-2 league victory in February. However, they have been equalised after taking the lead five times and have only been able to concede a goal in four games.
Manchester United fans have questioned the team's progress under the new coach, hoping that the team will confirm the official manager sooner and Lonnick will take on the role of adviser.
C Ronaldo's flawless performance on Saturday made him the top scorer under the German, scoring six goals. B Fee also scored four goals, with Sancho and Sweden youngster Erlanga scoring three goals each. A total of 11 players scored for Ronnick's side.
Moyes: 11 wins, 5 draws and 3 defeats, scoring 33 goals and conceding 18 goals
Ferguson's carefully selected successor won the Community Shield by beating Wigan in his first game but had an erratic start in the league, beating Swansea but dealing with Chelsea and losing against Liverpool. His other two defeats were at Old Trafford against Manchester City and West Brom. Due to a failure to achieve good results in his debut season, Moyes was sacked after 10 months.
Louis van Gaal: 10 wins, 5 draws and 4 defeats, scoring 33 goals and conceding 23 goals
Being eliminated by Wimbledon in the League Cup sent the Dutchman's start to a low ebb, which, coupled with United's absence from the Champions League that season, ensured that 18 of his first 19 games were in the league. Notably, the 23 goals conceded were the highest of the coaches, who coached United for two seasons and helped the team win the FA Cup.
Mourinho: 10 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses, scoring 29 goals and conceding 20 goals
Like Moyes, the Madman's inaugural match won the Community Shield. But he has lost five of his first 19 games, more than any other coach on the list. Including consecutive losses to Manchester City, Feyenoord and Watford. He led the team to the League Cup and Europa League in his first season, and then reached the FA Cup final and finished runner-up in the league in the second season.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer: 14 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats, scoring 40 goals and conceding 17 goals
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer served as interim coach in his first 19 games and his over-expectations resulted in a regular turn for him. He started with an 8-win, 11-game unbeaten run before losing to Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of the Champions League, while United have scored more goals in 19 games than anyone else on the list. However, Manchester United under the Norwegian has never won the trophy, and this season's performances have forced him to leave Manchester United.
