The 22-year-old has also helped himself to three hat-tricks - the most recent of which came against rivals Manchester United in the derby on Sunday.

The frontman also bagged three goals against Nottingham Forest and Crystal Palace, and scored against West Ham, Newcastle, Aston Villa and Wolves. Bournemouth were the only side that prevented the Norway international from finding the back of the net, but the Cherries did lose 4-0.
