Donny van de Beek made his 50th appearance for Manchester United at the weekend. We know this because the club's Twitter account celebrated the 24-year-old's milestone, albeit as an 89th-minute substitute as Ralf Rangnick's team were desperately attempting to hold on to a 2-2 draw against Aston Villa, having led 2-0 until the 77th minute.
What the United tweet didn't tell us was that the club have played 89 games in all competitions since Van de Beek arrived at Old Trafford in a deal worth an initial £35 million from Ajax in August 2020, and the Netherlands international has started just 19 of them.
