""It's a proud moment," he told Sky Sports. "The 100 club is a huge thing. To do it this quickly is amazing. I'm proud, I'm happy. "I've said it many times - a striker for City should score a lot of goals. That's my job, that's what I try to do. And I'm not bad at it! "I should have had a hat-trick, I had a few chances. I need to practice.""
""[It was] chaotic," Haaland said. "Nine goals in a game is too much. If you're watching this game at home, it should be match of the day as you said! It was a crazy game. "At 5-2 or 5-3 I was close to scoring and then they went and made it 5-3 so that's football, that's the beauty of football. That's why we love the game.""
Erling Haaland scored in Manchester City's 5-4 win at Fulham to reach 100 Premier League goals in his 111th appearance, the quickest any player has done so. Alan Shearer held the previous record of 100 goals in 124 games. Haaland has 144 goals for Manchester City since joining in 2022 and indicated he expected to have scored more. He hit the post twice in the match and missed chances that would have produced a hat-trick. The nine-goal contest produced a chaotic, high-drama spectacle that underscored football's unpredictability and entertainment value.
