Manchester United Hits Swansea Four To Retain The Top Position [PHOTOS].

Manchester United underlined their early-season Premier League title credentials with a ruthless 4-0 victory at Swansea.

United looked to be labouring to a 1-0 victory after the first league goal of Eric Bailly's career on the stroke of half-time.

But three goals in four minutes from Romelu Lukaku (80), Paul Pogba (82) and Anthony Martial (84) saw Jose Mourinho's men maintain their 100 per cent start to the season with a second successive four-goal win.

Despite frustrating United with a resolute defensive display, Swansea offered little by way of a response as they tasted defeat at the Liberty Stadium for the first time since April 5.

It took just three minutes for the game's first openings as Jordan Ayew's cross deceived David de Gea at his near post, striking the crossbar, moments before Lukaku flashed a shot wide at the end of a blistering counter.
Phil Jones, from an offside position, then headed the ball against the crossbar as both sides hit the woodwork in a frantic opening nine minutes.
