An insane Jadon Sancho statistic has emerged after Chelsea beat Brighton that will get Manchester United fans talking.
Sancho joined Chelsea from Man United during the summer transfer window and has enjoyed a blistering start to life at Stamford Bridge.
He has started Chelsea's last two Premier League fixtures against West Ham United and Brighton, having made his debut for the club as a substitute against Bournemouth.
Sancho has only played three games for his new side but has already recorded three assists.
He set up Cole Palmer's second goal in Chelsea's 4-2 win over Brighton on Saturday.

In doing so, the winger has now provided more Premier League assists this season (3) than Man United players Bruno Fernandes, Alejandro Garnacho, Marcus Rashford, Mason Mount, Christian Eriksen, Joshua Zirkzee and Kobbie Mainoo COMBINED (2), per Squawka.
A damning read for Man United supporters as their club offloaded Sancho, who failed to deliver at Old Trafford during his spell.
Last season, he was banished from the first-team squad by Erik ten Hag following their public dispute.

Sancho went onto rejoin Borussia Dortmund on loan, where he rediscovered his form, helping his side reach the Champions League final.
Even though he was involved in Man United's pre-season before the new campaign, Ten Hag sanctioned his transfer as the 24-year-old looks to have returned to his best form under Enzo Maresca.
After their opening day defeat to Manchester City, Chelsea have recorded 13 points from five games as the addition of Sancho has bolstered Maresca's attacking options.
