Manchester United FC news: Conversion rate stat shows how reliant on Zlatan Ibrahimovic club have been this season

Manchester United will be delighted to welcome Zlatan Ibrahimovic back from suspension this week, with a worrying stat proving how poor the striker's attacking team-mates have been this season.

While the Swede has been battling for the Golden Boot having scored 15, so far, in his debut campaign at Old Trafford, Wayne Rooney, Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial are among the five players with the worst conversion rate in the Premier League.

Stats from The Times (players with minimum of 30 shots included)

After Ibrahimovic, United's next highest top scorer is Juan Mata with six goals, followed by Paul Pogba on four goals – illustrating how troubled Jose Mourinho's team have been in attack throughout the campaign.
