Manchester United fans have a lot to be happy about at the moment.

They've bought some brilliant players this summer - £75million forward Romelu Lukaku and £40million Nemanja Matic top this pile.

And the entire team has hit the ground running, recording two sensational 4-0 results against West Ham on the opening day of the season and Swansea the following week.

Stand out performers have been Lukaku, who just cannot stop scoring, Paul Pogba, who looks rejuvenated with Matic standing next to him, Anthony Martial, who has bagged goals and assists as a cameo player, and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

The Armenian is widely considered to be one of United's most creative outlets, and so far this season has demonstrated this to be 100 per cent accurate.

Against West Ham he recorded two assists, and then in the win over Swansea he recorded two more, meaning he has set up a total of four goals so far this season - three more than he managed during the entire 2016/17 campaign.

Liverpool's Philippe Coutinho - the Reds' prized possession who has been the subject of some serious Barcelona interest of late - is yet to feature in the Premier League this season.

But his record amount of assists, which he managed last season, is seven, meaning after just two games, Mkhitaryan is only three behind matching it.

And well, United fans haven't shied away from boasting about the fact that there man is almost certainly going to eclipse Coutinho's record.
