RUBEN AMORIM has been at Manchester United for only three weeks but has already fixed one of their big problems.
Goalscoring has been a real issue for United this season. Their tally of just nine from their first 10 Premier League games was their worst total since way back in 1972 and their second-lowest ever.
Under Amorim (above), United have scored five in their last two league games and look like they have got their mojo back.
Marcus Rashford has three in two starts, Rasmus Hojlund bagged two against Bodo/Glimt and Joshua Zirkzee (left) netted twice against Everton on Sunday.
The turnaround in all three strikers is remarkable. Rashford had scored just four in 18 games before Amorim arrived and Danish international Hojlund two in 13.
