Erling Haaland can still break more records if he pulls his finger out.
With five goals in the group stages and a further seven during the knockout phase, Haaland is almost certain to collect his second Champions League Golden Boot. The closest player still left in the competition is Vinicius Junior, who has six goals for semi-final opponents Vinicius Junior.
That selfish sod Haaland has only directly set up seven Premier League goals while having 35 laid on a plate for him.in April; Bernardo Silva was the beneficiary of a lovely Norwegian flick against Newcastle at the start of March; Ilkay Gundogan converted a delightful driven cross against Aston Villa in February; two stunning passes sent Phil Foden on his way to a Manchester derby hat-trick in October; Gundogan again benefitted from some glorious hold-up play against Bournemouth in August.
Sunderland had been challenging for the First Division title with semi-regularity after the First World War, but Dave Halliday was intended to help them take that next step. And to his credit, the striker did his bit: he scored at least 35 goals in each of his four league seasons with the club, starting with 38 in a productive debut campaign. Yet Sunderland did not win their next title until 1936, seven years after Halliday left for Arsenal.
A record which was hardly mentioned until it recently dawned that Haaland might be pretty good, this one hangs tantalisingly in the balance between him definitely beat it and it being a step too far.
