Since making his Premier League debut in August 2022, with a brace against West Ham, Haaland has been almost unstoppable, winning the Golden Boot in both the 2023/23 season (36 goals) and 2023/24 season (27 goals).

This season, Haaland continues to lead the list of top scorers with 15 goals after 14 matches. Therefore, he has rewritten Premier League history at the 100 mark, 13 matches earlier than Alan Shearer who held the record in the past.

After the match, Haaland had classy statements while still maintaining humility: “ Joining the 100 Club is a great thing and I am extremely happy. That is what I try to do, try to help the team score goals and that is my job.

When you are a striker for Man City, you have to score goals. If you don't, I get criticised and that's what they do. My responsibility is to score goals ."

He shared more about the general situation of Man City: “ Every match is a different competition, you can not think about the past match but have to focus on the things ahead. In fact, we lost to Newcastle and Leverkusen. Man City suffered 2 consecutive defeats and we have to keep moving forward.

The schedule is unclear. There are a lot of games next month. We will try our best for each game and recover quickly for the next one .”

Meanwhile, Pep Guardiola exclaimed about his favorite student: " The numbers are crazy, very crazy. Haaland is definitely one of the best strikers of all time in the Premier League ."
