United front sparked fast start, says coach Mourinho

London: Jose Mourinho says Manchester United's dynamic start to their Premier League title challenge has been fuelled by the feel-good factor among his forwards.
Mourinho's side head to Southampton on Saturday in confident mood after reeling off four wins from their first five league games.
United have already scored 16 times in the league, netting a further seven in the Champions League and League Cup.
It is a goal spree that must have seemed unimaginable last season when United's strikers were repeatedly held in check in a series of drab draws at Old Trafford. With Lukaku scoring seven since his close-season move from Everton and Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial also among the goals, United look capable of winning the title for the first time since 2013.
Mourinho believes the key to United's success has been his forwards playing with a more positive attitude this season.
