Haaland breaks record, reaches 100 Premier League goal involvements in 84 matches

Erling Haaland made history by reaching 100 combined goals and assists in the Premier League faster than any player before, achieving this milestone in just 84 games during Manchester City's 2-2 draw with Brighton. This surpasses the previous record held by Alan Shearer, who achieved the same in 100 matches. Since joining City from Borussia Dortmund in 2022, Haaland has scored 84 goals and provided 16 assists. Despite this impressive record, his goal-scoring pace has slowed this season, currently standing at 20 goals in 27 matches, trailing behind Liverpool's Mohamed Salah. Haaland's strike rate has also decreased, with a goal or assist every 103 minutes this season compared to 63 minutes in his debut season. His performance remains notable, especially against teams like Manchester United and West Ham, where he has had significant success.
