I'm pretty neutral on the PL, I like the competition and enjoy good football so I'm not trying to be anti Man U here.
I was merely pointing out that looking at a stat like this feels like trying to prop up an overall mediocre start to the season on an oddly specific stat.
Last 5 games is a pretty standard way to measure form of a football side. Don't get me wrong, this table is flattering for united's performances and that's kind of the point. Despite our horrendous start and awful couple weeks, we've still won 4 out of 5 in PL and bettered every other team in that time period.
