Unreal. 6 goals in 4 games and he and the team are not even at their best yet. If we keep him fit he could break allsorts of records this season. A monster of a player.

The boy is a phenom

His ridiculous goals per game ratio continues. I said a few weeks ago if he knocks in 25 PL goals it will be a success (and it will) but now I’m thinking he might smash that

I think the record is Shearer with 31 PL goals in a season.

At this point, that record looks under serious threat. It's not beyond the realms of possibility that he could smash it to pieces.

I read an article the other day regards Mark Spitz and Michael Phelps. For those that don't know, Spitz was an Olympian swimmer from the 60's/70's, and Phelps, well I'm sure the vast majority know of him. The crux of the article was this; if Spitz were to jump into a time machine and compete with Phelps in his pomp, then Spitz wouldn't even be in frame by the time Phelps finished a length. Point being, Phelps was an infinitely superior swimmer to Spitz and reinvented standards in swimming.

I think we'll see the same with Haaland. He's a freak of nature. It's been repeated ad infinitum; if he stays fit he'll obliterate records. Because he's a Michael Phelps, he looks like he's reinventing the gold standard of being a centre forward.

We are blessed, truly blessed, to have him lads and lasses.

Totally agree. Absolutely fuming with myself for not having a few quid on the different season bets they offered on him. 5 hatricks was 80/1
