All Manchester United Centurions: Fernandes Reaches 100 as Rooney Stays Top
Fernandes hits 100 for United; Rooney leads with 253 goals. Rashford is 13th on the club list. Read.
Scoring 100 goals for a single club is a rare milestone at Manchester United and Bruno Fernandes has now joined that select group. The Portuguese captain reached his century despite a difficult period for the club, moving past the likes of David Beckham, Eric Cantona and Dwight Yorke in United’s goalscoring charts. Eighteen players still sit ahead of him.
Marcus Rashford is the only current United player among the centurions, although he is currently on loan at Barcelona and looks unlikely to play for the Red Devils again. Rashford has scored 138 goals for his boyhood club and is 13th on the all-time list, ahead of centurions Ole Gunnar Solskjær, Andy Cole and Brian McClair.
Tommy Taylor holds the best goals-per-game ratio among the hundred-goal scorers with 0.69 strikes per outing. David Herd managed 143 goals in 261 matches, while Ruud van Nistelrooy produced 150 goals in 219 appearances, 149 of which came from inside the penalty box. Cristiano Ronaldo sits between those two with 145 goals across two spells; it took him 346 matches to reach his century.
Longevity helped both Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs climb into the century club. Scholes, a midfielder, finished with 155 goals in 716 games and reached his 100th against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux in March 2010. Giggs amassed 168 goals in 963 appearances, placing him seventh in the club’s list.
Several of United’s historical forwards occupy the top positions. Dennis Viollet scored 173 goals in 284 outings, Jack Rowley managed 190, George Best 179 and Denis Law 243 in 405 matches. Bobby Charlton sits second with 245 goals in 746 appearances. Wayne Rooney tops the list, with 253 goals across 559 appearances.
The club’s century-makers range from midfielders and long-serving icons to prolific strikers, illustrating different routes to triple figures at Old Trafford. Fernandes’s inclusion continues a tradition that spans the club’s most celebrated eras.

Salah reached 152 goal contributions at one Premier League ground, overtaking Henry and Rooney. 2026
Mohamed Salah set a new Premier League benchmark when he reached 152 goal contributions at a single stadium during Liverpool’s 4–1 thumping of Newcastle United on Saturday. That total places him ahead of the previous record of 151, which was held jointly by Thierry Henry and Wayne Rooney at Highbury and Old Trafford respectively.
Salah’s tally at that ground is compiled from 107 goals and 45 assists, producing the 152 figure that now stands alone at the top. Thierry Henry’s total there was 114 goals and 37 assists for 151, while Wayne Rooney recorded 101 goals and 50 assists for the same combined total.

Beyond the stadium-specific milestone, Salah remains on course for other career landmarks in the Premier League. He is fourth on the all-time scoring list with 190, 18 behind Wayne Rooney’s 208 and behind Alan Shearer and Harry Kane. Whether he can move up into third depends on form and remaining fixtures: Liverpool have 14 Premier League games left and Salah has scored four goals in 16 outings this season.

The past 18 months have been full of broken records for Salah and have strengthened his standing in Premier League history. The clock is ticking for Salah and it is not yet clear how long he has left to rack up the numbers. His current contract says 18 months but his tense relationship with manager Arne Slot may suggest otherwise.

Neville Criticises Amorim as Mainoo Rises in Carrick’s Midfield Plan
Neville slams Amorim’s handling of Mainoo as Carrick’s system brings midfield balance for United plus
Gary Neville used blunt language to describe how Kobbie Mainoo was managed at the start of the season, arguing the midfielder was mishandled before finding form under Michael Carrick.
“I must admit, I never liked the handling of Mainoo,” Neville said on the new episode of Stick to Football, accusing Ruben Amorim of damaging the player when it became clear he would not be selected alongside Bruno Fernandes. “I thought it was rubbish,” he added. “It killed him publicly. And then he never put him in the team at all, apart from [against] Grimsby. That was nearly pushing a talented player out of the club before he even really had a chance to perform. You look at him now in these two matches, you think, how could that be? How could [Manuel] Ugarte [be picked ahead of him]?”
Roy Keane welcomed Mainoo’s recent performances. “You couldn’t ask for any more,” he said, adding that the overall turnaround had been “brilliant.” He also warned that conclusions should be cautious given the sample size: “It is only two games,” he warned, wanting to see more.
Paul Scholes praised the renewed midfield balance once Carrick adjusted the system to include both Mainoo and Fernandes while Casemiro remained at No. 6. “Kobbie and Fernandes, they make your team play football,” Scholes said. “When they had just been doing it with Fernandes, they sent [one] to play. He didn’t really have anyone to play with. Now, Kobbie’s also got that ability to play with someone. It makes a big difference.”
Statistical snapshot from the two recent matches (Man City, Arsenal):
Minutes Played: 90, 90
Rating (Out of 10): 7.5, 6.9
Touches: 51, 54
Passing Accuracy: 91%, 86%
Passes into Final Third: 1, 4
Chances Created: 0, 2
Defensive Contributions: 9, 6
Mainoo’s club revival raises questions about his international prospects. The 20-year-old was instrumental as England reached the Euro 2024 final and has the opportunity to force his way back into the national squad for the World Cup if his run of form continues.
