Look at Nunez at number 2.
The cat is unfortunately making PL history, thread should be bumped for milestones like this.@Samid just loves bumping this thread. Weird really.
It is pretty much bumped everytime he scores, by certain United fans. I don't really mind tbh, but I do find it pretty odd.The cat is unfortunately making PL history, thread should be bumped for milestones like this.
Not every goal, mind.
Wow.The cat is unfortunately making PL history, thread should be bumped for milestones like this.

Our awful national team means he'll probably have only half the shots that someone like Mbappe will have.His finishing has been poor today. For sure been a bit rustier after the world cup break.
Still even with that he has 3 goals in the two games back.....
He won't be but he should for sure be in the running for Balon D'or. His rate of scoring is just undeniable
Yeah and we all are regretting not taking a chanceAnd he's just getting started.
The signing of Haaland instantly made them favourites for the CL in my eyes, even before the season started. I thought they might be a bit weaker in the league, but he provided them the thing that they had been previously missing in the CL.Could be a good bet for Chps League if KDB continues to put it on a plate for the white Lukaku.
Eh? Might want to check your maths there. 20 goals in 14 games extends out to 54 goals in 38, not 76 goals.20 in 14, that equates to 76 goals over a full PL season. Not going to happen, but mind-bogglingly, there may be a chance he reaches a goal total that would be sufficient to win the Rocket Richard Trophy as the top goalscorer in the NHL (with its 82-game season). Just think about that.
How many games do you think there are in a full Premier league season!!20 in 14, that equates to 76 goals over a full PL season.

Overall goals is more important, i feel, aren't City scoring slightly more than last season at current rate?Brilliant goalscorer. It is so wierd seeing a player score goal after goal when his overall game is not that great. But he don't need to care, nor do fans or manager.
However, question is if this is good for ManCity in their overall game? You never want to rely on just one player scoring goals. Almosst 50% of their goals have come from him.
nope. far from it.Is he the goat again now?
will he score this much if he is playing for United ?13 goals in 23 remaining matches to set a new EPL record in his first season. Kid is something else.
He scored a lot for a shit Dortmund, why shouldn't he do it for United? United definitely is in a better tactical shape then Dortmund in the last monthswill he score this much if he is playing for United ?
That equates to 76 goals in a season? You need to recheck your mathematics my friend. 20/14 = 1.42. 1.42x38 = 54.28 goals. That’s assuming he continues to score at his current rate and remains injury free and plays every game.20 in 14, that equates to 76 goals over a full PL season.

They are scoring a lot more, but they're also conceding more. Last season after 15 they had 32G:9GA, this season it's 43G:15GAOverall goals is more important, i feel, aren't City scoring slightly more than last season at current rate?
Don't think they are better than last season overall though.
That's the big question. While he adds punch for matches City control but lack end product, he also makes it more difficult for them to control matches. Which of these two effects will prove to have the bigger influence on their season results remains to be seen.I'm sure he'll pulverize Salah's record but I'm still not sold on him actually improving City. He's insanely dangerous when they create many chances anyway but did they really need somebody who made them even better when everything works out for them anyway? Because I feel he worsens their problems when they struggle with an opponent.
One of the things I really hate about modern football online chat is how overused the word 'sitter' has become. All three of the chances you're describing were literally just that - chances.he missed 3 sitters. He should have scored 5 instead.
So, they have improved offensively then, though, they also concede more compared to last season, dont know if some of that has to do with Haaland or not, i watch City not very often tbh.They are scoring a lot more, but they're also conceding more.

Haaland has *failed* to score in 5 games so far, one of which he played 45 minutes and one was the community shield. In the other 3 games, he had an assits in one. So he's directly contributed to a goal in all but 4 games he played in, one of which was the community shield and the other a game in which he played 45 minutes and City were happy to draw anyways. He has appeared in 20 games, which means he's scored in 75% of his appearances...
Being one on one with goalkeeper is a sitter all day long.One of the things I really hate about modern football online chat is how overused the word 'sitter' has become. All three of the chances you're describing were literally just that - chances.
Also, his 2nd goal was not an easy finish, so one could say he shouldn't have scored that instead, you score some you miss some.One of the things I really hate about modern football online chat is how overused the word 'sitter' has become.

Bollocks is it. A sitter is an easy chance you'd expect any professional footballer to score. One-on-ones have never come under that category.Being one on one with goalkeeper is a sitter all day long.
It's not really to do with Haaland. Cancelo has regressed massively and we haven't had consistency in the backline all season, there's been a few injuries, Akanji or Stones have been at RB a lot.So, they have improved offensively then, though, they also concede more compared to last season, dont know if some of that has to do with Haaland or not, i watch City not very often tbh.
