Manchester United Set for Fewest Games in a Season Since 1914-15
Posted on January 12, 2026, updated on January 12, 2026
Manchester United is facing a turbulent season and is on track to play the fewest matches since the 1914-15 season, with the team eliminated from both domestic cup competitions early. After a disheartening 2-1 loss to Brighton in the FA Cup, the club is experiencing a significant decline, now with only 40 games expected this season.
Interim boss Darren Fletcher is tasked with navigating these challenges, following the departure of Ruben Amorim amid a series of poor performances. The club's situation has become precarious, sitting 14th in the Premier League with just a single win in their last seven matches. Stress is palpable among management after they have dropped points against weaker teams.
Fletcher acknowledges the team's issues—specifically their ability to defend and convert scoring opportunities. He stated the need for the players to embrace the pressure and focus on their remaining goals, piecing together a path to qualify for Champions League football.
As Manchester United prepares for the Manchester derby against City, the spotlight continues to shine on Fletcher and the future direction of the club amid mounting fan frustration. The upcoming matches will be vital in determining their immediate prospects and long-term plans.
