It's the number of games he's achieved it in that's particularly incredible. He could potentially get into the 70s or 80s if he keeps this rate up and plays for another 5/6 years.

We're privileged enough to witness this freaking legend-in-making.

Not trying to piss on Harry's likelihood of overtaking Rooney, but that goal to game ratio of Jimmy's is off the scale.

Great achievement for Harry but he's not on Jimmy's level and lets not forget Jimmy had several other great goal scorers to tend with. Harry has had a free run for quite some time. But fair play to Harry he's stuck at it.

PS: Charlton's was to shabby either for an attacking midfielder
