Manchester City superstar Erling Haaland is now outscoring his appearances in the Premier League after back-to-back hat-tricks in the division following their 3-1 win over West Ham.
The Hammers were the latest victims of the Norwegian hitman, who has seven Premier League goals in three games.
No other player has scored as many as the striker after three matches in the Premier League - beating Edin Dzeko's tally of six in 2011/12.
Haaland was unstoppable on Saturday afternoon where he ran riot at the London Stadium with goals in either half.

It follows his treble against Ipswich Town last weekend to make it an electric start to the season for the 24-year-old - making this the 24th hat-trick of his career.
And it now means that Haaland has scored 70 goals in 69 Premier League appearances - outscoring his total matches in the division.
The Leeds-born ace made the switch from Borussia Dortmund to City in the summer of 2022 and has been a roaring success.
His goals have led City to Premier League success in both of his seasons at the club, winning the Golden Boot in both campaigns.
And his debut season at the Etihad saw him score 52 times in 53 appearances, leading City to the treble with the Premier League title, Champions League trophy and FA Cup.

Another simply said: "Beast."
While a third posted: "We cannot compete."
That last fan might have a point, with City steamrolling oppositions once again. It will take a miracle to stop them winning a fifth title in a row at this rate.
