If Manchester United scoring a Premier League goal wasn’t shocking enough, their opener against Norwich on Sunday also brought about another major milestone.
In netting at Carrow Road, academy product Scott McTominay (basically their deadliest player now) scored United’s 2,000th league goal since 1992/93 – making them the first team to achieve that tally since football was invented.
@ManUtd are the 1st team to score 2000 PL goals

United are 142 goals clear of Arsenal, among six ever-present teams in Premier League history. In keeping with their current misery, however, Everton are 7th in the all-time list despite being among those clubs.
Naturally, we thought we’d celebrate the north-west giants’ achievement with a quiz. Namely: can you name the players since 1992 who’ve contributed at least 10 goals to that hefty total?
You’ve got eight minutes on the clock to get this one done and then tell us your score @FourFourTwo – retweets are on the cards for those who don’t give away spoilers in the process.
THEN TRY…
QUIZ! Can you name the 51 all-time top scorers in the Champions League?
