Erling Haaland continues to break goalscoring records, becoming the quickest striker to score three hat-tricks in the Premier League, doing so in just eight games. The Norwegian has already scored 14 goals and will score more than 50 if he holds this pace for the rest of the campaign.

Fantasy managers have even more selection challenges after the last goal-laden round of fixtures. Brighton midfielder Leandro Trossard has emerged as a strong budget option, while Bernardo Silva is a good choice for the mid-price bracket.
