To put Mason Greenwood's fledging career at Manchester United into perspective, the in-form striker has already scored more goals for the club than Alexis Sanchez, Radamel Falcao and Angel Di Maria combined. He is only 18-years-old.

The academy graduate is making a real impression at present.

Despite only making seven Premier League starts at Old Trafford since his emergence from the youth system, Greenwood has already scored 16 goals in 42 appearances this season, including a stunning brace against Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon.

The youngster has all the ingredients to become a first team regular under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. He is deadly in front of goal. He can dribble at speed and can operate in a number of positions.

He's even gained 3kg of muscles in the triceps, biceps and quadriceps during lockdown to improve his overall physical stature.

And perhaps his biggest strength of all is the ability to shoot with both feet as shown in the below compilation, where he scores 14 goals with his left foot and 19 with his right foot - and most of them are screamers.

This kid is seriously something else.

Something that Greenwood has improved on since scoring the above goals is his physical attributes.

In a training clip that has recently emerged online, Greenwood can be seen knocking defender Victor Lindelof off the ball with relative ease, showcasing his new found strength to create an opportunity on goal.

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has praised Greenwood for his lockdown transformation.

"Mason is a young boy. He's still 18 and this lockdown period has done him all the good in the world because, at his age, they do develop and fill out." he told the Manchester Evening News.

"Mason's looking more and more like a man, so definitely it will help him.

"Sometimes early on you could see he was a kid. Now in training he can use his strength better and he has done really well over the three or four weeks we have been training now.

"And his quality in front of goal has always been there and now he has muscle to push defenders away.

"I am not sure it was deliberate but the fitness coaches have worked really well with him. He has got the rest and recovery period after for him what must have been an intense first full season with the first team. He is looking good."

Greenwood continues to make an impact in the United side at present and Solskjaer is clearly a huge fan.
