A strike rate of exactly one every two games in the top flight for the Red Devils began 25 years ago when he signed from Aston Villa.

His debut season at Old Trafford saw him spearhead the charge to the then unique English achievement of Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League Treble.

He scored 18 league goals that season and shared the Golden Boot with Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink of Leeds.
