11 Surprising Stats From Man Utd 0-0 Newcastle United

0 - Number Of Successful Dribbles Made By Gabriel Obertan

He may have played on the wing for the Magpies on Saturday and his side may have enjoyed just a third of the possession, but it is strange to see that Gabriel Obertan only attempted one dribble all match. On top of that, Obertan was dispossessed while attempting that solitary dribble. For a side who had set-up to counter attack, this is quite a bizarre stat indeed. It must be noted that Obertan did, however, put in a lot of work defensively.
