How Ole created our best attacking side since Sir Alex
The 18-year-old's master-blast took the Norwegian's charges one beyond the 105 notched by Jose Mourinho's class of 2016/17, and eight games quicker than their predecessors.
Following the 2-0 victory over Leicester City on Sunday, our count is now 108, which puts us just six shy of the 114 goals achieved by Ferguson's 2012/13 vintage. And with the Europa League yet to conclude, things could get even better.
Solskjaer would no doubt shrug his shoulders at all this, and claim that it's only right that United should be matching the feats of the Ferguson era. But for fans, the Reds' free-scoring panache since the arrival of Bruno Fernandes is an encouraging indication of the squad's progress.
