Manchester United’s U-18s have continued their imperious reign over the Premier League North this season.
They sit at the top of the league, having won all five of their games this season.
United U-18 have scored an astounding 22 goals, over four per game on average, while only conceding a single goal this campaign.
Gabriele Biancheri is their top scorer with eight goals in five games, averaging a goal every 48 minutes.

This afternoon, United U-18 thrashed eighth-placed Blackburn 9-0 at Carrington.
Biancheri scored a brace to continue his spectacular form but was still somehow not the best player on the pitch.
Attacking midfielder James Scanlon scored four goals on an 18th birthday that he will remember for the rest of his life.
Zachary Baumann, Dante Plunkett and Godwill Kukoni also contributed to the goalfest for United.
It is only a matter of time before United’s star performers earn a promotion to the U-21s.
The first names on that shortlist would likely be Biancheri and Scanlon.

United’s U-21s have struggled in the Premier League 2 this season, sitting in ninth after the first five games.
Last season, they finished a disapponting 12th in the table, the second lowest of any ‘Big Six’ academy side.
United fans should not worry about how their U-18 team will perform if their best players are moved up the ranks, as they have some exciting new signings in the squad.
16-year-old Chido Obi-Martin’s transfer from Arsenal’s academy was confirmed yesterday.
Many consider the striker to be one of the best forwards in the country at his age.
Furthermore, Samuel Lusale and Sekou Kone arrived in the summer to strenghten United’s academy sides.
Coming off the back of a domestic treble-winning season last term, United U-18 could not have dreamed of a better start to this campaign.
