Every goal tonight, while not pretty, was so satisfying.

The first he outmuscled a defender and then got in front of him with rapid movement.

The second he got it on the half turn and played a good ball through to Foden then didn’t just stay still, got into a scoring position.

The third - that standing leap. Christ on a bike.

Add to that he has every goal in his locker and we’ve only really seen the ‘in behind’ goal twice. Frightening ceiling really.

Also, every goal has had importance really. Both in a 2-0 win at West Ham. Started a comeback against Newcastle. Completed a comeback against Palace. Started the scoring at 0-0 tonight against Forest.
 
Clinical beast !

Its almost a completely different game with him in it. To think how wasteful we’ve been in front of goal in the past….
 
Every goal he scores his expression screams CITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good lad.
Oh my. can’t wait until he scores against the scum and lifts his shirt to reveal the words:
“Roy Keanes a **** and the Pope says fuck off.”
Well worth a yellow.
 
Calling him a “FIFA cheat code” on TV here!

Already breaking records in his first 5 games!

Quickest to 2 hat tricks
Most goals in August
Most goals in first 5 games…

Big, strong, fast, good with both feet & his head, great attitude…and still so young!

He may have a future!
 
His third tonight was his 6th goal in his last 73 minutes,

It’s not hyperbole to suggest that he could get 6 in one game this season or any future seasons.
 
It’s funny but I remember quite a few on this forum unhappy he was getting £350k per week “as he’d not proven himself in a top league”, just glad Txiki is in charge, imagine if we’d lost him to Liverpool or Chelsea? They’d be favourites.
 
Great players can make the most out of the littlest touches they get. Felt like most of the time, when he gets a touch of the ball, it turns into a goal threat. Excellent efficiency.
 
Can't imagine what must be going through Kane's mind. He would have banged a few in this team as well and now is stuck at Tottenham.

Haaland might be scoring easy goals but his movement is elite. A lot of times he faces an empty open net becuause of his movement.
 
He looked like he could score when ever he wants too last night I was at the game and I was thinking just give him the ball he will score the boys a freak
