Erling Haaland is already speeding towards two records after Man City hat-trick vs Manchester United

Erling Haaland is an unstoppable force and it seems the occasion makes no difference. Man City faced Manchester United in what was a highly anticipated derby on Sunday, but it was clear by the end that despite Erik ten Hag's promising start to life at Old Trafford, he still has a long way to go.

Pep Guardiola's side won 6-3, with hattricks from both Haaland and Phil Foden and it is clear that the Norwegian shows no signs of slowing down. The striker now has 14 goals in eight games and barring injury it seems like he will break the Premier League scoring record.

The existing record for most goals in a single season is 34, which is held jointly between Alan Shearer and Andy Cole. If you don't want to accept that because it was in a 44-match season, then the record in a 38-game season is held by Liverpool's Mohammed Salah with 32.
