And Dixie Dean played in 39 of them. 60 goals in 39 games.42 games then v 38 now
That was in 1927/28, just one year after Middlesbrough's George Camsell's record of 59 goals (including 9 hat-tricks, a record still standing today). Imagine scoring a whopping 59 goals, smashing the record, only to have it beaten the very next season.
The fact that suggesting Haaland might beat them is only half-joking shows just how insane of a start Haaland has had. Let's pray he can keep it up all through the season. (Currently on pace to 59.7 league goals this season!)
