In the remainder of the season, Phillips set or equalled club records by scoring in seven consecutive matches and in nine consecutive home matches, became the first Sunderland player since Brian Clough in 1961–62 to score 30 goals in a season, and finished the campaign with 35 goals in all competitions, the most by any Sunderland player in one season since the Second World War.

In the run-up to the start of the 1999–2000 FA Premier League season, pundit Rodney Marsh predicted that Phillips would struggle to get more than five or six goals at the higher level. Forming a potent “little and large” strike pairing with veteran target-man Niall Quinn, Phillips scored his sixth goal on 18 September – the first of a hat-trick against Derby County – and was named Premier League Player of the Month for October. His goal tally was 20 by mid- January and 30 by the season’s end, a total that earned him not only the Premier League Golden Boot but also the European Golden Shoe award – as of 2019, he remains the only Englishman to have won the latter – and with a 14-goal return from Quinn contributed to Sunderland’s seventh-place finish, just missing out on a UEFA Cup place.
