En route to winning 13 Premier League titles under the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson, the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney would often torment opposition defenders.
That goes without mentioning superstars such as Robin van Persie and Dimitar Berbatov – who, despite their immense ability, did not manage to make it into the top ten highest goalscorers in the history of Manchester United.
On that note, let’s take a look at the ten who did make this exclusive club.
