He's won fewer tackles, while his tackle success rate is lower than it was under Ronald Koeman.
Schneiderlin has lost some of his attacking edge too, with just one goal (against Everton) and not a single assist since moving north. Last year he found the net four times, with three arriving in the opening month of the campaign.
