Players with most goals against Manchester United in Premier League history ft. Haaland & Salah
Some players have enjoyed facing the Red Devils in the league. Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has only appeared in a few Premier League games against Manchester United, but he has quickly established himself as one of their worst nightmares, having almost reached double figures in goals against them.
Nevertheless, where does the Norwegian striker stand among the Red Devils' least favoured opponents? Over the decades, United have been tormented by several big names, with legends from Liverpool, Manchester City, Arsenal, and Newcastle United making the top 10.
Here are the top ten Premier League goalscorers against Manchester United. Player Goals 10 Pascal Groß 7 9 Phil Foden 7 8 Les Ferdinand 8 7 Robbie Fowler 8 6 Thierry Henry 8 5 Steven Gerrard 8 4 Sergio Aguero 8 3 Erling Haaland 9 2 Alan Shearer 10 1 Mohamed Salah 13 10.
Pascal Groß has been an excellent servant at Brighton for seven years, but his name stands out as quite surprising, as the German is among the players to score a healthy number of goals against the Red Devils. The versatile midfielder collected a total of 30 Premier League goals, with seven of them coming against United.
The English player has always been an impactful star against the neighbours. Les Ferdinand: 8 goals Youngsters nowadays may not recognise Sir Les as a Premier League legend, but only seven players have accumulated more non-penalty goals.
Ferdinand scored eight of his 159 Premier League goals against Manchester United. Few of them are as remarkable as the header he scored in Newcastle United 's historic 5-0 triumph in 1996.7.
Robbie Fowler: 8 goals Fowler encountered Manchester United while playing for Liverpool, Leeds United, and Manchester City. He did not score for Leeds against them, but he did score twice for City and six for Liverpool.
No surprise he was referred to as 'God' on Merseyside. However, the opening goal was without a doubt the greatest of the eight.
A 20-year-old with bleached blonde highlights left it beyond Peter Schmeichel's grasp. Few athletes have enjoyed the moment as much as Thierry Henry has.
