Media appear to be wetting their pants about how many goals this guy will score and seem to have assumed he will continue at the same rate for the next ten years.

Looks a real handful but will teams eventually work out how to play against him? The only time I can remember someone scoring goals at the same rate was Marco Negri who scored 23 goals in his first 10 league games but “only” managed 32 by the end of the season.

You appear to be forgetting Sam Cosgrove.

Saw something yesterday saying he has now scored 170 goals. In comparison by the same age Messi had 48 and Ronaldo 50. Lad is a physical freak as well as a good player. Not sure teams will work him out.
