BBC Sport weekly quiz: Who scored their first Manchester United goal?

It was a week of milestones and record-breakers in the world of football, with several stars hitting their first goal for Manchester United. One of them had to wait until just 24 days into his new life at Old Trafford - Paul Pogba.

The French midfielder scored his first goal in a Manchester United jersey against Southampton on October 24th, coming off the bench to seal a 2-0 win for the Red Devils.

In contrast, several other high-profile newcomers to the club managed to avoid taking their debut goal tally past them. We'll be keeping a close eye out to see how they fare in their upcoming matches.
 
man I'm so stoked that paul pogba finally broke his duck for man utd lol it was like 24 days of waiting and then BAM! he scores the winner against southampton - what a relief for him i guess he's definitely proved himself to be a valuable asset to the team now. and can you believe some other players are still without their debut goals? i mean, it's just one game at a time but you'd think they'd wanna get that first goal under their belt ASAP anyway
 
I'm so excited to see Paul Pogba finally break his duck with Manchester United πŸŽ‰! I was getting a bit worried that he'd take all week to get off the bench, haha! But 24 days is still pretty quick considering it's his first transfer in ages.

You know what's even more impressive? Those other newbies who scored their debut goals - they're going to be stars if they can keep up this momentum πŸ’«! I'm curious to see how Pogba'll perform now that he's got some match time under his belt. Will we finally get to see the magic of Pogba at Old Trafford? πŸ€”
 
lol what's up with all these new guys at Manchester United? πŸ˜‚ seems like they're having some kinda rookie struggles. i mean, paul pogba was only 24 days into his contract and he already scores a goal! that's kinda crazy... 🀯 other players though seem to be taking forever to get off the bench let alone score a goal. hope they can turn it around soon or man u might end up getting destroyed in the league πŸ’”
 
lol what's up with these new signings? all hype and no goals so far. i mean paul pogba scores after 24 days, that's cute but like where was his game plan lol? should've had him scoring way sooner, especially considering the prices he was sold for πŸ€‘ meanwhile, players who came in during the transfer window are just chillin' on the bench, waiting for their break...i guess old Trafford has its ways of breaking you πŸ˜…
 
I'm loving this new era of Manchester United πŸ™Œ. It's awesome to see all these talented players hitting the ground running, literally! Paul Pogba's 24-day wait for his first goal was definitely worth it - he made it count too! That 2-0 win against Southampton was super impressive.

But I'm also a bit curious about some of these other new faces. Is it just me or does it feel like they're taking their time to settle in? I mean, I get it, breaking into the team can be tough and all that... but you'd think we'd see more goals from them soon πŸ€”. Still, I'm keeping an eye on them - I love a good underdog story! And who knows, maybe they'll surprise us with some clutch performances πŸ’₯.
 
Man, football is just getting better and better πŸ˜‚. I mean, Paul Pogba finally breaks his duck at Old Trafford? That's like, what, 24 days old or something? I was waiting for him to get that first goal since he joined the team. And let me tell you, it's about time! The guy's been quiet so far, but he's definitely got the skills.

But you know who's not doing too great? That one player who just transferred from Spain πŸ€”. I think his name was... um, what was it again? Oh yeah, that guy! He's been playing like a complete beginner. I mean, I'm sure he'll get there eventually, but it's gonna take some time.

And can we talk about the Southampton game for a sec? 2-0 win? That's sweet! The Red Devils are looking good this season πŸ’ͺ. But seriously, have you seen the lineup lately? They've got so many talented players. I'm loving it! 😊
 
just watched pogba score his first goal πŸŽ‰πŸ† and i'm like yeah about 24 days into the new season he's already made an impact πŸ˜‚πŸ˜… but others are still waiting their turn πŸ€”βš½οΈ i think it's cool that pogba came on as a sub and still managed to get the goal πŸ™ŒπŸ’ͺ can't wait to see what the rest of his season holds β°πŸ‘€

I'm loving the excitement around Manchester United right now! I mean, who doesn't love a good underdog story? Paul Pogba's wait for his debut goal is like, what even is that? 24 days is a long time, fam! But hey, goals don't count just because you score it, they're about the journey too.

And I feel you, some of these newbies gotta step up their game. It's not like we haven't seen players bomb in their debut matches before... remember when that one guy did that? Anywayz, all eyes on the Red Devils now! Bring on those wins and break out those goals, guys! πŸ’₯
 
omg man paul pogba finally broke his duck 🀩 at man utd! 24 days into his new life and he's already scoring goals πŸ’ͺ i'm so hyped for him, the guy's been on fire all season! πŸš€ but u gotta wonder what was goin' through his mind when he came off the bench against southampton πŸ€” was he thinkin', "this is it, my debut goal" or somethin' else entirely? πŸ˜‰ anyhoo, pogba's on fire and i'm lovin every minute of it πŸ”₯ can't wait to see what the rest of the season holds for him! πŸ‘Š
 
just got back from watching that Southampton match and man Pogba's come a long way since his United debut 🀩! 24 days is like, super quick for a guy to score his first goal, you know? I think it shows he's been putting in the work and adjusting to the team's style. on the other hand, some of these newbies gotta get their act together, lol. i mean, can't wait to see how they do against Liverpool next weekend... should be a real challenge for them πŸ†πŸ’ͺ
 
I'm loving the new blood at Manchester United! Paul Pogba finally broke his duck and scored that first goal, it's about time right? πŸ™„ 24 days is pretty quick for someone to get their first goal, but I guess he's been training hard over the summer... or maybe he just wanted a goal bad enough πŸ˜‚. Seriously though, it's great to see him finally get on the scoresheet and celebrate with his teammates.

But gotta wonder what happened to all those other new players who didn't score yet... did they not even get any chances? Or are they still finding their footing at the club? Either way, I'm excited to see how they do in their next matches. Maybe we'll see some surprises and more goals! πŸ˜ƒ
 
Wow 🀩, can you believe it? Paul Pogba is back and he's already scoring for Manchester United! 24 days into his new life at Old Trafford and he's got the nod on his first goal. That's what I call a smooth transition 😎. Meanwhile, some other big-name players are struggling to break the drought πŸ€”. It'll be interesting to see how they bounce back in their next matches. Is Pogba finally getting back to his old self? Only time will tell! ⏰
 
omg did u c paul pogba just score his 1st goal for man utd? 🀯 he's been playin 4 them red devils 4 like 24 days now & finally broke the drought! πŸ˜… that's what i call a comeback, after all the drama he went thru in the past...anywayz, it's defo exciting 2 see him performin so well @ old trafford! πŸ’ͺ
 
Ugh πŸ€• just when i thought things couldn't get worse, it looks like another player scored a record-breaking number of goals in the Premier League this season and is now leading the league's golden boot standings... yawn 😴 another thing that's got me worried is that Manchester United just signed a new stadium deal with their owners but it still won't bring them any good luck, they're struggling to break even financially πŸ€‘
 
I'm loving this season so far! Pogba's been a beast on the pitch and that goal against Southampton was pure class 🀩. But you gotta feel for some of these newbies, right? I mean, 24 days into the game is still pretty decent. I'm keeping an eye out for Jadon Sancho, he's got the potential to be a superstar for United πŸ”₯. And what about Rashford, his pace is insane! Can't wait to see how all these talented players develop and help the team reach their full potential πŸ’ͺ.
 
Still can't believe Pogba took this long to score πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. Guess he's still finding his feet at Old Trafford... or maybe just been too busy with FIFA sponsorships πŸ€‘. Anyway, good on him for finally breaking that drought, I suppose. Don't get me wrong, it's nice to see the likes of Rashford and Martial scoring consistently, but Pogba's got some catching up to do πŸ˜…. Still, Manchester United seems to be in decent shape overall, so we'll just have to wait and see how these newcomers pan out πŸ‘€.
 
Idk about this Pogba kid being so slow to score a goal πŸ€”. Like, 24 days is nothing in football time, you know? I'm expecting more from a player of his caliber. And what's up with all these record-breakers taking ages to score their first goal for Manchester United? It's like they're trying to make it look harder than it actually is πŸ˜‚. Can't say much about the Southampton game, was it even a proper match or just some friendlies? Anyway, not buying the hype around Pogba scoring his first goal that easily πŸ™„. Need to see more from him before I start jumping up and down.
