Richarliso­n ...................... 76 Dele Alli ............................ 66 Jordan Ayew .................. 62 Alexis Sanchez .............. 56 Wilfried Zaha .................. 55 Eden Hazard ................... 52 Ashley Barnes ................ 45 Raheem Sterling ........... 44 Javier Hernandez ......... 42 Ruben Loftus-Cheek ..... 41 Salomon Rondon ........... 39 SKIPPER Tommy Smith said Huddersfie­ld can defy the odds to stay up.

The Terriers dropped into the bottom three for the first time this season following their 2-0 defeat at Old Trafford.

David Wagner’s side have not won in their last eight Premier League games, their slide suggesting they are destined for the drop. But Smith (above) said: “We were written off all last season and that worked out well. The bookmakers have probably said we were favourites to go down from the beginning, but that’s totally irrelevant to us. “It was irrelevant to us last season and it is the same this time around. “If we stick together we’ll be OK. We’ve proved people wrong before and we can do it again. People can write us off all day long but if we stick together we can do it.”

JOSE MOURINHO has already seen enough from Alexis Sanchez to know that he will not need to buy another attacker this summer.
