Mo Salah now 5th all-time on his own with 185 PL goals, two behind Andy Cole, and 28 behind Harry Kane in second.

Salah the only real current interest on the all-time goals charts. Vardy (143) is done. Son (127) and Sterling (123) past their best. No other current PL player has more than 100 goals.

If Haaland stays at Man City, he will get close to Shearers record. He is currently on 84 goals in 94 games, 0.89 goals per game.

By contrast, Salah is on 185 in 297 games (includes 2 goals in 13 games for Chelsea) an average of 0.62 goals per game.

Shearer scored 260 in 441; 0.59 goals per game.

Yeah, Haaland the outlier. Kane got 0.65 goals per game, Aguero 0.67.

I'd be amazed though if Haaland stays at City long enough to break the record. He'd have to play another 200 games, so six seasons, just to get there at his current rate of scoring.

Agreed; Another season, maybe 2 at most and then Real Madrid or Barcelona will come calling.

Fun fact. Everton (15th) have the fifth best defence in the Premier League. Last season they finished 15th - with the fourth best defence in the division. They just can't score goals. Just 74 in their last 72 league games.

They should buy Haaland.

They've got Beto who has looked like a beast whenever I've seen him, but only managed 6 goals.

Evanilson, sending off all day long. Don’t know who the pillock is on Sky is going on about “he slipped” and shouldn’t be red, it’s still a red card as, whether intended or not, that’s what hit the Utd player and could have broken his leg or worse.

I'd say it's 'red enough'

Apparently not (I've not seen it so have no opinion)
