Manchester City scorers in Premier League games v the Big Six gives Haaland an actual challenge

Manchester City have had 33 different scorers in Premier League games v fellow Big Six sides since the start of the 2010/11 season. They’re all here.

The podium positions are pretty obvious but there is room for legends such as Jesus Navas and Martin Demichelis, as well as the rogue inclusion of some fella called Frank Lampard. They are among this list of every player to have scored for Manchester City in Premier League matches against Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United and Tottenham since the start of the 2010/11 season – the first in which they comprised the top six.

We have even broken it down into goals against each opponent before confirming the overall totals. These numbers are accurate as of the last Manchester City game versus a Big Six side (3-1 v Arsenal on February 15, 2023).
