There's no more debate now. Erling Haaland is in the midst of the greatest single goalscoring season the Premier League has ever witnessed. On Wednesday, he scored his 35th goal of the season in Manchester City's 3-0 win over West Ham, the most anyone has ever notched in a Premier League campaign.
Who knows what the Norwegian will do in the remainder of his career, but no one can take away the fact his first term in England has been more prolific than anyone could have imagined.
Despite the big scoreline against West Ham, though, this was far from an easy match for City and they failed to score in the first half for the first time in the league since the Crystal Palace match on March 11.
Nathan Ake eventually got the ball rolling with a header from a free-kick early in the second half, courtesy of a lovely pass from Riyad Mahrez, and Haaland sealed he points by scoring with a delicate chip.
A deflected Phil Foden volley rounded off City's ninth consecutive league victory to take them back above Arsenal at the top of the table.
