'Ridiculous' Haaland sets new scoring records (BBC Sport)

Erling Haaland is called "ridiculous" and "sublime" as he obliterates the record for fastest player to score 15 Premier League goals in Saturday's 4-0 win ...

Haaland could also close in on the Norway goalscoring record this season. Tom Waring is second with 49 goals for Aston Villa in the top flight in 1930-31. His nine goals in one game against Honduras in 2019 remains a record for a Fifa Under-20 World Cup match. Haaland also has the record for fewest Champions League games needed to score 10, 15 and 20 goals. He left Bryne at the age of 16 after no goals in 16 games. The Norway striker took Quinn's record (11) of most goals in his first nine Premier League games. Harry Kane was closest with 29 goals in 30 games in 2016-17. He has four in October so far. If Haaland scores another seven goals he would break or equal those marks too. Those nine goals made him the top scorer in August of any Premier League season. Before this season Micky Quinn had the most goals in his first nine Premier League appearances with 11. He had a similar start to his time in Germany.

Which goal scoring records can Erling Haaland break with Man City? (AS English)

Manchester City's Norwegian striker can't stop scoring and his net-busting skills could see a host of records fall, including top Premier League scorer.

The record for Champions League goals stands at a remarkable 140 set by Cristiano Ronaldo in his spells at Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus. Even so, the Norwegian goal machine would likely need at least eight, nine or more seasons at the top of his game in the Champions League to trouble Ronaldo’s efforts. The closest was Tom Waring of Aston Villa who slotted home 49 goals in the 1930-31 season. He’d need a record-breaking 43 goals per season to do it in six. Haaland could well be on course to break this record this season. But at his current scoring rate Haaland would need considerably less than a 100 games to get to the 100 goal mark. Just for fun - one quirky hat-trick record in the Premier League is scoring consecutive hat-tricks in two different seasons. For a 42-game season the record is held by Shearer and Andy Cole, who both hit that number in 93-94 with Newcastle and 94-95 with Blackburn respectively. Haaland now has 28 games in 22 appearances, from his time at Salzburg, Dortmund and now City. The 22 year old striker (born 21 July 2000, in Leeds, UK) has already scored 19 goals in 12 appearances for Man City, and in doing so has set a number of records. This is another record held by Alan Shearer, who scored 260 goals over his 441 game career. (That’s about the same in dollars).

Guardiola 'upset' with Erling Haaland for only scoring a single goal ... (Eurosport.com)

Pep Guardiola joked that he was 'upset' with Norwegian striker Erling Haaland for only scoring a single goal in 4-0 Manchester City win over Southampton.

In a 38-game season, the record is Mohamed Salah's 32 in 2017-18, while Andy Cole and Alan Shearer each scored 34 in a 42-game season. He said: "The problem is that even if he's not immediately scoring you have to be aware of him much more, the centre-backs are more fixed in the centre, it makes it harder for us in the press. He said: "He scored a brilliant goal. He went on to explain in greater detail. That's why there's a petition to sack him from the Premier League!" Guardiola said: "I'm so upset with him - he didn't score three goals.

Erling Haaland now has 20 goals after his strike in Manchester City's 4-0 win over Southampton but Pep Guardiola joked he should have scored a hat-trick.

WHAT THEY SAID: "I'm so upset with him - he didn't score three goals.

Haaland went into the game in ruthless form after hitting a hat-trick in last week’s 6-3 drubbing of Manchester United and scoring a double in the 5-0 win over Copenhagen in the Champions League.
