42 in ~290 games.
4 less than Beardsley, a second striker then midfielder who got 46 in ~130 games
1 less than Cole who got 42 in 58 games
1 more than Ferdinand who got 41 in 68 games

Clearly not a good record... but how many of those are sub appearances? That must skew the stats a fair bit.
EDIT - just seen this has been answered..
