Aaron Wan-Bissaka has set the record for the number of successful tackles won in the Premier League this season. The Man Utd defender was on his game during the Red Devils trip to Carrow Road to face Norwich on Sunday.

Wan-Bissaka produced another sturdy display at right-back, winning a mammoth 11 tackles during the contest. That accounts to a quarter of the 44 tackles he has made all season so far, as he ranks third in the list across the Premier League. Only Leicester duo Ricardo Pereira and Wilfred Ndidi have made more, although both have made more appearances 10 and nine respectively.
When big-money moves come about hefty expectations are placed on the players involved in the respective deals and rightly so. Aaron Wan-Bissaka was no different to that when he sealed a £50million transfer to Manchester United from Crystal Palace back in July. And the full-back has made a solid start to life at Old Trafford, already setting one new Premier League record for the 2019/20 campaign
Aaron Wan-Bissaka has impressed during his short time at Old Trafford, earning his first call-up to the England squad last month, but was forced to withdraw through injury. United ran out 3-1 winners against Norwich to catapult themselves from 15th up to seventh in the table. Scott McTominay got the ball rolling for his side, before goals from strike pairing Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial followed.
Both forwards miss penalties in the clash, however, meaning Manchester United has now failed to score from four of their six spot-kicks this season. Rashford has now missed two of those, but boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer saw the funny side after VAR had given his side the opportunities.
“The first one I don’t think is a penalty if it takes two minutes it’s not clear and obvious,” Solskjaer said. “But Marcus Rashford did the honorable thing and missed it. I don’t think we’ll see Paul maybe before December.” Solskjaer added. “He’ll be out for a while. He needs time to fully, fully recover, so I don’t think he’ll be back.
