Erling Haaland was rested during the World Cup as Norway did not qualify.

But he doesn't seem to have lost his sense of purpose.

When Manchester City played their first game after the break, the goal machine struck twice again.

Both times played by Jack Grealish.

He is the fastest ever to reach 20 Premier League goals.

The most goals ever in a season with 38 games is Mohamed Salah who scored 32 in the 2017-18 season.

Andy Cole (1993-94) and Alan Shearer (1994-95) have both scored 34 goals when a season included 42 league games.
