Ruud van Nistelrooy an Mohamed Salah have scored the most in a single campaign with 44, but with 42 already to his name, it won’t be long until Haaland breaks that record. However, just three minutes later it was Haaland again, with Phil Foden curling a beautiful ball round the Burnley defence for his striker to tap home with ease. That made it 40 goals for the season, with Haaland extending his record for most in a season for Manchester City.

‘What everyone sees is his goals [but] his movement in the box, his athleticism and pace to be on end of those balls….and he is at the right place for his development, with right coach. Cole Palmer, the 20 year old replacement for Haaland, would find himself with a clear opportunity to make it 5-0 on 67 minutes after Peacock-Farrell had deflected Foden’s cross into his path. Guess who was there, taking a perfectly coordinated swing first time and nailing the rebound for his hat-trick? This time it was the brilliance of Kevin De Bruyne’s ball inside right back Connor Roberts was simply impossible to defend, which was followed by Phil Foden rolling his cross into the path of Haaland for 2-0. Three minutes later Riyad Mahrez found De Bruyne and Alvarez finished the incisive move for 4-0. Foden was buzzing around like the best kid on the playground showing off and accelerated past his man on 60 minutes, tucked away his shot, only to see it rebound off the post. But it didn’t help Burnley that their positional reinterpretation of English football involved Ameen Al-Dakhill deciding not to track Haaland after initially challenging for a header on 32 minutes. They’re part of a special elite and even the very best defenders find it hard to stop those guys. They went man for man on City and refused to change their style of play. Kompany knew it was all too much, too young, a case of being drowned in praise before scrambling for the lifeboats. Someone like Erling will keep finding a way.’ That’s quite the list to be namechecked with. There isn’t a team in world football that permit do that and emerge unscathed.

[HAVE YOUR SAY: Who will win the Champions League?](https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/who-will-win-the-champions-league/blt5856a35f4b64505b) [TOP STORY: Messi 'seriously considering' Barca return](https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/psg-star-lionel-messi-seriously-considering-barcelona-move/bltc1fc0218793906df) Erling Haaland is in no mood to stop scoring and bagged yet another hat-trick as Manchester City crushed Burnley 6-0.
Manchester City monstered Burnley in the FA Cup with Erling Haaland adding to his ridiculous record this season.
More important than the form is what it has done for City, setting them up to challenge hard for three competitions when they return in April. Starting with the penalty at Palace last Saturday, he has won three matches for City in three different competitions with nine goals in 145 minutes of football - one every 16 minutes on average - that would seem unbelievable if it had not all been televised in high definition. Aymeric Laporte and Kyle Walker were both back in the team after recent absences and improved their chances of more starts going forward. The hat-trick felt inevitable, and lived up to his midweek mantle handed to him by Jack Grealish of being an 'absolute ball magnet'. Soon after, that was Haaland's day done - no opportunity to go for the double hat-trick. City's manager made seven changes from the side that beat Leipzig 7-0 but there was never any doubt that Dias would keep his place - he is irreplaceable in the team at the minute. It was a long kick from the keeper that did the trick. Here, he took less than three minutes to take the game away from a Burnley side that had caused City real problems in the opening half-hour. The No.9 already has more goals than any City player has ever scored in a single campaign and he could have 18 games to improve that. City were unbeaten in nine games before this weekend and that run coincided exactly with Dias coming back into the side. The former centre-back had one of the best views in the house to watch one of the greatest players world football has seen take the game away from the Championship side and continue an absurdly good season. Guardiola spoke in the programme notes of how City have missed Kompany, and they have.
Norwegian striker has 42 goals for season after three more in 6-0 FA Cup quarter-final win.
His low ball into the area arced invitingly for Haaland and he lifted it neatly over Peacock-Farrell. That meant his contribution for the week totalled eight goals from just 126 minutes of action. The sixth came soon after as Alvarez raced on to a De Bruyne through ball and turned inside Ameen Al-Dakhil to thump home. He gave Peacock-Farrell no chance as he rifled home and the score quickly became 4-0 as Kevin De Bruyne burst into the area and squared for Alvarez to tap home. Burnley, the runaway Championship leaders, started confidently and Stefan Ortega was almost caught out as he was rushed into a pass and gifted the ball to Ian Maatsen. Haaland was fed on the edge of the area by Alvarez and, although Bailey Peacock-Farrell rushed out, he instinctively poked the ball beyond the keeper.

He is as he is — a high-spec, Terminator-style No. He knows that he will have the chance, he will be there. But as it remains, he keeps scoring goals, from anywhere and everywhere, with any part of his body (even with his Samurai bun if he whims so), with minimum fuss, at any time of the game, in any part of the globe. Calling him a goalscorer is reductionist like all he knows is how to score goals. It is not just that he scores goals, but scores them at a bewildering frequency. He touched the ball just 30 times — but one in six ended up as a goal.
