Erling Haaland Breaks The Premier League Record For Most Goals Scored
May 8, 2023
This season has been on for the ages for Erling Bruut Haaland(aka man child) has single handedly smashed every record whilst carrying his team to glory. Some could argue that he is so good he isn’t even human(it is believed that he is robot, goal scoring machine).
On Wednesday May 3rd title holders Manchester city, set out to play West Ham United. The final score was 3-0 as City steamrolled through the match. Erling Haaland scored one of the 3 goals ensuring his name will forever be remembered in the history books.
In the pervious match against Fullham, Haaland tied Alan Shearer for most goals in a single season at 34 while playing in less matches than Shearer did. In the match against West Ham he officially broke the record for most goals in a premier league season
At the beginning of the season many fans including myself wrote in regards to Haaland, “Oh he’s just a bundesliga talent, he can’t adapt to the prem” or “he is gonna flop the style of play in England is much different than Germany.” It’s safe to say that Haaland has proven everybody wrong by within 11 games he had already netted 15 goals.
As soon as he scored 15 goals in 11 games everyone knew he would break the record. The question was just when would he break and by how much. On Wednesday May 3 wefinally got our answer, and currently sits 3 goals over Mo Salah, and now one over Alan Shearer with 5 games left to play.
