The last time a Manchester United player scored from open play in a 'big six' Premier League fixture supporters were present. Never mind Tier 2 approval for 2,000 spectators, every tier was full at Old Trafford and the roar that greeted Scott McTominay's Manchester derby clincher is perhaps unrivalled in the fallow Ferguson years.
That was nearly 11 months ago. A Bruno Fernandes penalty - converted in a joint-worst Premier League defeat - is United's only goal across 540 minutes against Tottenham, Chelsea, Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal in the league this season. They also fired blanks in the Carabao Cup semi-final defeat to City.
