MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Manchester United coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said his squad has plenty of goals in it and he does not expect the team to be over-reliant on Bruno Fernandes again, after the Portuguese's hat-trick led United to a 5-1 thrashing of Leeds United.

Fernandes was United's top scorer with 18 Premier League goals last season, seven more than the next-highest scorer, and was again crucial to his side as his first hat-trick for the club inspired United to a fine opening day victory.
