Reds Set For Scoring High?

Manchester United’s goalscoring form in the Premier League thus far has been ruthless, with the Reds bagging a total of 21 goals already this season - that's an average of three goals a game! 

Romelu Lukaku has played a key part, having scored seven in seven, matching former Reds striker Andrew Cole's club record in the league. Anthony Martial has helped himself to three league goals so far, while Marouane Fellaini now also has three after his brace in Saturday's 4-0 win over Crystal Palace.

The scintillating start compares with those from our most prolific past Premier League seasons. In 1999/2000, United had scored 19 goals after seven games, while the only season in which the Reds had hit more goals at this stage was in 2001/2002, when 22 were plundered.

Interestingly, the Reds had only netted 13 goals after the same number of games last season and it took a total of 16 matches to reach the 21 goals United have achieved so far this term.

Since the Premier League began, the Reds' best record in terms of goals scored in a whole season is 97, back in 1999/2000. The 2001/02 season saw United score 87 goals, while fans witnessed 89 strikes in the 2011/12 campaign.
