As the graphic above shows, Dybala's stunning record puts him at the pinnacle of Europe's top five leagues in goals per minute.

That ridiculous strike rate (one league goal for every 47 minutes) has fired Juventus to a 100 per cent start to the Serie A season.

He has 10 goals in just six matches, with Max Allegeri's side holding a maximum 18 points out of 18 in Italy.

Second is the revitalised Radamel Falcao, who has continued his stunning renaissance at Monaco.

The Colombian, who has 11 goals in seven matches, scored a goal every 52 minutes.

The Manchester United and Chelsea flop is even ahead of Lionel Messi - who is scoring a goal every hour.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner failed to score in the win against Girona at the weekend, but has nine goals in six matches.

Liverpool will have been disappointed to have missed out on Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, with the Gabonese striker again proving his quality in the Bundesliga.

The 28-year-old has a goal every 67 minutes, one minute quicker than former team-mate Ciro Immobile.

The Italian scores once every 68 minutes for Lazio.

His goals have helped Simone Inzaghi's team to an impressive start this season, the Roman club are fourth in the table.

Three Premier League strikers led the division with six goals - but it's new boy Alvaro Morata who has done the most in the least time.

The former Real Madrid striker, buoyed by a brilliant hat-trick at Stoke at the weekend, has now scored a goal every 76 minutes.

That puts him ahead of Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero (one every 78mins) and Manchester United's marquee summer signing Romelu Lukaku (one every 90mins).
