We went from 8,000 to 9,000 goals in less than nine years between 2001 and 2010, and strikes by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Wayne Rooney versus Leeds United and West Ham United, respectively.
Last season saw us become the first Premier League side in the rebranded division’s 28-year history to reach 2,000 goals, when Scott McTominay fired home the opener in a 3-1 win at Norwich City. But 2020/21 is poised to see us hit the monstrous number 10,000 across all competitions.
