The astonishing statistics of Guardiola's record breaking Man City

Manchester City continued their incredible pursuit of the quadruple with a stunning 7-0 victory over Schalke on Tuesday night.

The win secured their place in the last eight of the Champions League in emphatic fashion and means Pep Guardiola's side continue to fight on all four fronts.

Leroy Sane, Raheem Sterling, Bernardo Silva, Phil Foden, Gabriel Jesus and Sergio Aguero (twice) all found the net to help City progress.

The win also means they have now scored 32 more goals than any other Premier League team so far in 2019. It was also the seventh time they have hit opposition teams for more than six this season.

Guardiola's side currently lead the Premier League title race from Liverpool and remain in the hunt for glory in the FA Cup.

They have already picked up silverware in the shape of the Carabao Cup, secured thanks to a penalty-shootout victory over Chelsea last month.

Only Championship side Swansea stand in their way of another trip to Wembley, meanwhile, with City already in the last eight of the FA Cup.

This incredible campaign comes on the back of City's record-setting season last year, when they became the first season to break 100 points in the Champions League.

They also secured the most wins, the most goals, the biggest title-winning margin and the best goal difference in Premier League history.

Here, Sportsmail runs through some of the amazing statistics that illustrate another impressive campaign.

Manchester City have now scored more goals after 48 games (in all competitions) than any team in English top-flight history.

Thanks to Tuesday's romp against Schalke, Guardiola's side have racked up 139 goals across 48 games.

That means they have broken a record that had stood since Tottenham scored 134 goals in 48 games back in 1960-61 and 1962-63.

City's title winning seasons of 2013-14 and 2017-18 also feature in the top five.

Guardiola's side are also leaving the rest of Europe in their wake when it comes to being prolific in front of goal.

City's incredible haul of 139 means they have racked up 51 more goals than any other Premier League side this season. Arsenal are second on 88.

They also have more goals than any other team in Europe's other top leagues (Bundesliga, Ligue 1, La Liga and Serie A).

Paris Saint-Germain are the next most prolific with 122 goals in 42 games, with Barcelona third on 104 in 43.

City's amazing scoring form has also seen them rack up more wins than any other team in the major European leagues.

Guardiola's side may only lead Liverpool by one point in the race for the Premier League but no side on the continent can match their number of wins.

They have picked up 38 wins in 48 games, with PSG again second on 34 wins in 42 games and Chelsea third with 31 wins in 48 games.

At the heart of City's success, of course, is the slickness of their play under their Catalan manager.

But they also boast a number of outstanding individuals.

This season the Premier League leaders have the three most prolific players in the top flight when it comes to goals and assists.

Aguero leads the way with a combined 33, with Sterling (32) and Sane (30) clipping at his heels.

Harry Kane and Mo Salah make up the top five.

Manchester City are showing no signs of letting up in front of goal, either. Their 7-0 win over Schalke took their total in 2019 to a remarkable 61.

That means they have now scored 32 goals more than their nearest scoring rivals Arsenal (29), while Tottenham, Manchester United and Chelsea all have 27.

Against Schalke, Guardiola's side inflicted the heaviest ever defeat suffered by a German side in Champions League history.

And in so doing, they racked up six or more goals for the seventh time... this season!

On Tuesday night, City not only secured their place in the last eight but also continued an incredible scoring record in the Champions League.

They have now netted at least two goals in each of their last seven games in the competition. No English club has ever managed such a streak.

Manchester City secured a 10-2 aggregate victory against Schalke, following a 3-2 win the in the first leg and Tuesday night's demolition job.

That is the biggest ever winning margin by an English side in a Champions League knockout tie. Only Bayern Munich have outdone them. In 2008-09 they battered Sporting Lisbon 12-1.

Sergio Aguero netted twice in the win over Schalke, meaning he has now scored in four consecutive Champions League games for the City.

That is the joint-longest run of any player for the club. Only Raheem Sterling in November 2017 has enjoyed such a prolific run.

Pep Guardiola has now reached the quarter finals of the Champions League in nine of his 10 campaigns as a manager.

The only time he failed to do so came in 2016-17, ironically his first season as Manchester City manager.

Raheem Sterling's fine season continued on Tuesday night as he scored in City's rout and even captained the side after David Silva and Sergio Aguero went off.

The England international has now been directly involved in nine goals (six goals and three assists) in his last four starts on home turf.
