Ibrahimovic joins Shearer, Aguero and elite Man Utd list

Zlatan Ibrahimovic joined an esteemed group of players when he scored his 14th Premier League goal on Sunday.

The Swedish striker netted yet again for Manchester United to help his club to a 1-1 draw with Liverpool at Old Trafford.

It was Ibvrahimovic's 20th Premier League appearance and goal number 14 places him alongside and just behind some bona fide superstars of the English game.

At United in particular, Zlatan joins Robin van Persie on 14 goals from his first 20 league outings for the Red Devils, only behind Ruud van Nistelrooy and Dwight Yorke.

Overall, the former PSG ace has equalled the 20-game tallies of the competition's leading scorer Alan Shearer, as well as Manchester City's Sergio Aguero.
