Haaland Record Tracker

[Metalartin]

I haven't read the whole thread but it shows how special he is, that a record tracking thread is absolutely necessary.

The fastest players to reach 50 goals in Europe’s big leagues since 2000

He already holds the record of the fastest to 50 goals in all 5 of Europe's big leagues(per league stat) since 2000. He did that at Dortmund where he arrived at the age of 19, scoring 50 goals in 50 games.

That list includes players like Ronaldo at Real, Neymar at PSG, van Nistleroy at the Rags, Salah at Liverpool, they even included Shevchenko even though he started slightly before the 2000s.

In the Premier League, he is on track to break his own record and smash the Premier League record(Andy Cole 65 games), with 45 goals in 44 games.

Shearer holds the record for 50 goals in the fewest minutes, with 5,337mins. Haaland is on 45 goals in 3,577 mins.

50 Premier League goals is within touching distance in the next few weeks, almost certainly before Christmas. Only 130 people have ever achieved that feat. Barring injury, he will overtake Edin Dzeko, Tim Cahill, Gareth Bale, Diego Costa, Alex Lacazette and Javier Hernandez by the end of the season.

He could do it one game…

47 goals in 45 games

Took Cole 65 games to reach 50 goals, and he’s the fastest in 30 years of PL football.

To do it in under 50 games is, frankly, taking the piss.

Now only needs one more to absolutely smash the record.

Andy Cole - 50 goals in 65 games
Haaland - 49 goals in 47 games

I noticed Carragher yesterday highlighting that “Andy Cole didn’t take penalties”.

While true, if you exclude all of Haaland’s penalty goals he would still be scoring at a faster rate than Cole.

And to be clear, Cole’s form in those first two seasons was quite freakish and something he failed to maintain - by the end of 1995 he had 55 goals in 76 games (0.72 goals per game), not as fast as Haaland’s non-penalty goals but very good. By the end of his spell with United, he had 136 goals in 265 games (0.51 goals per game).

Haaland has averaged about a goal per game for five straight seasons and in the Champions League. Cole scored 289 goals across his career which is a great effort. But Haaland is already on 204 and he’s only 23.

Nice post. Carragher was just looking for anything to have a go - I wonder if he’d remove Salahs penalties from his record at Liverpool??

Surprised by Dzeko, always thought he got more than 50 in the league for us!
