Chelsea have scored fewer goals than Haaland in the PL this season.
Erling Haaland is already a part of football history and he is only 22 years old. The Norwegian has set foot in England and Manchester City have surrendered their scoring record in the battle for domestic glory with Arsenal.
His reign is so much that he has scored 30 goals in just 27 games in the current Premier League. Furthermore, 'number 9' has scored more goals than 8 opponents:
Chelsea (29), Crystal Palace (29), Wolves (24), West Ham (27), Bournemouth (28), Everton (23), Nottingham Forest (24) and Southampton (24).
Indeed, the saints are their ultimate victims. Erling Haaland scored twice in a resounding victory over the bottom team (1-4). One of the two goals came from a reverse bike kick after a well-coordinated Jack Grealish on the left flank.
Wolves and Crystal Palace were the targets that the Norwegian coach punished the most, scoring four goals each. His favorite target, however, is Manchester United, with whom he scored a hat-trick and provided two assists in a 6-3 win at the Etihad Stadium.
Erling Haaland is a beast that has scored 44 goals so far in all competitions. When focused on the Premier League, the striker averaged 1.11 goals per game and scored every 73 minutes.
