When it has come to the art of scoring goals this season, it hasn't been something that Manchester United have been able to master all that easily.
The Reds, who will be hoping to put Thursday night's 1-0 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium behind them when they face West Ham United on Sunday evening, are the lowest scorers currently camped inside the Premier League's top seven. They have scored just 49 league goals this season, which is a far cry from the tally they would have been hoping to achieve.
A quick glance at the league table tells you its own story, confirming that United's current goal difference of just +9 is an anomaly among those in and around them in the standings. For example, Newcastle United, who are directly above the Reds have a goal difference of +34 and Liverpool, just below, have a goal difference of +24.
