'I couldn't give a f***' - Manchester United great Andy Cole reacts to Erling Haaland breaking his record

Former Manchester United striker Andy Cole won't lose a second of sleep over his Premier League goal record being broken by Erling Haaland this season.

The Manchester City summer signing has surpassed Cole's 34 goal tally in 1993/94 which - until this campaign - had stood alongside Alan Shearer's tally in 1995. Haaland has 35 in 36 league outings, with his goals firing City to a fifth Premier League title under Pep Guardiola's management.

It's been a long time coming in the top flight, but Cole's effort with Newcastle United is no longer the target. Given the incredible nature of his first year with City, the sky seems the limit for Haaland who - no doubt - will want to go even better next season. As for the man he has overtaken, though, Cole insists he is not bothered.
