Manchester United Flop Is Outperforming Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Manchester United Flop Is Outperforming Zlatan Ibrahimovic

The numbers don't lie!

Sure, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is on a rich vain of form but his statistics pale in comparison to one Bebe.

The enigmatic Swede joined United in the summer from Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer and has already bagged 16 goals in 25 appearances.

Including a brace over the weekend against West Brom en route to securing all-three points but still remain seventh in the league.

But despite the impressive debut campaign in the Premier League, Ibrahimovic is only contributing to a goal once every 130.9 minutes.

Meanwhile, the once highly-touted Bebe - who's plying his trade in the La Liga with Eibar - is contributing to a goal every 96.25 minutes.

The Portuguese frontman has a better ratio of league goals/assists-to-minutes played than anyone in Jose Mourinho's side.


In fairness to the 35-year-old, he's got 1,440 minutes under his belt in comparison to the 26-year-old who has a mere 400 minutes.

But in that time Bebe has bagged two goals and two assists and he's also surprisingly outperforming Eden Hazard, Mesut Ozil and Philippe Coutinho, too.

The numbers don't lie.
