Haaland Record Tracker

[Coatigan]

Dixie Dean's record was always one of those things that I thought was an interesting anomaly from a bygone age but it would never be broken because 'football has changed'. I am starting to wonder about that now. Difficult, but possible, is my take - which is amazing when you think about it.

Agree.

Why is his total not relevant? 349 goals for Everton, dwarfs Shearer's and Kane's.

Also, is it 60 or 63 in one season. They keep saying different things. 60, Haaland has a chance imo. 63, not so much.

Pretty sure I'm right in saying there is now only one man in the entire history of top flight English football that has scored more competitive goals in a season than Erling Haaland.

That man being Dixie Dean.

Yes, but what was his xG?

Huh? HUH?

60 in the league, 63 across all competitions.

Is that Dixie Dean record all competitions or just league goals?

Up to last year I thought of City as "1990s Chicago Bulls without the Jordan-type monster."

This has now changed.

See above.

Haaland has a chance to break Dean’s 63 goal record across all comps but not his 60 goal record in the league.

I am fine with that personally, though, as it gives him a target next season. ;-)

Hopefully he'll get more games next season (wishful thinking for a Super Cup or a World Cup crack? Definitely maybe - gotta dream big). One game at a time, Haaland will reach new highs.

I want him to break the Hattrick one, been a while since he's scored one

On 5 occasions this season, he has been taken off with 15+ plus when already on 2 goals. If he wanta another, has to do it in 60 minutes.

Mind you he had 2 against Leicester within 20 minutes and got taken off at half time. I think that one isn't happening this season.

Think Haaland's next record could be another old City record - most league goals in a season, Tommy Johnson's 38 in 1928/29.
