Erling Haaland has 'no release clause for Real Madrid', insists Pep ... (The Guardian)

The Manchester City manager denied reports about his striker's contract but admitted Kyle Walker's abdominal injury could rule him out of the World Cup.

Haaland was substituted at half‑time to preserve him for a hectic fixture period in the buildup to the World Cup, which starts in six weeks. Walker’s absence would leave Southgate with a significant hole in his defence to fill. “It’s not true,” he said.

Another Manchester derby. Another Manchester City win. Another Erling Haaland hat-trick. For Manchester United, the second time this season they have found ...

The second-half performance from United may have looked to be an improvement on paper, but this was a City side and a crowd just toying with their rivals. United just need to be the fourth-best team in England this season. When a team is finally able to get the ball off City, it is crucial they are brave on the ball and take risks. The cross from De Bruyne to find Haaland for his second was inch perfect, a perfect example of the quality of those two players. Manchester City were already one of the best sides in Europe last season, but Haaland adds a cutting edge to an attack which creates chances for fun. Manchester City were outstanding all over the pitch.

“He’s unbelievable honestly, he’s a pleasure to play with.

It’s not true,” he told reporters. It was enough time, though, for the 22-year-old to demonstrate just how clinical he is and how natural goalscoring is to him.

Premier League records beware: Erling Haaland has landed (The Guardian)

Alan Shearer, Andy Cole and Sergio Agüero will have their names replaced in the record books if Haaland keeps this up.

As for his fellow countrymen, Haaland has surpassed Steffen Iversen and Josh King, who both scored two hat-tricks in the Premier League, and matched Ole Gunnar Solskjær, who scored three in his 235 Premier League appearances. If Haaland keeps scoring hat-tricks at this frequency, he will break Agüero’s record of 12 in the Premier League – which he set over the course of a decade – by the end of April. [against Fulham on the opening weekend of the season](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/aug/06/fulham-liverpool-premier-league-match-report). Shearer scored five hat-tricks for Blackburn in the 1995-96 season, which remains a record for a single campaign. If Haaland continues at his current rate of 1.75 goals per game, he will rack up 66 goals this season, almost doubling the existing Premier League record of 34 that was set by Andy Cole in 1993-94 and matched by Shearer the following year. [Three goals against Manchester United on Sunday](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/oct/02/manchester-city-manchester-united-premier-league-match-report) means that Haaland has scored 14 in his first eight Premier League matches, which includes the unique achievement of consecutive hat-tricks in three home league games. [City’s first match of the season](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/aug/07/west-ham-manchester-city-premier-league-match-report) then scored a further seven times in his next four games, breaking the record – previously shared by Sergio Agüero and Micky Quinn – for the most goals scored in a player’s first five games in the competition. Haaland is more than halfway to that number already with 31 games to play this season – and he will take a four-week rest while many of his opponents are in Qatar for the World Cup. The Englishman scored three hat-tricks in the space of 10 matches between November 1994 and February 1995; Haaland has sliced that milestone in half. For individual hat-tricks in the last five years, only Agüero with six, and Raheem Sterling and Salah with four each, have scored more than Haaland. In fact, in the last five years, City have racked up more than the combined total of Liverpool, Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal, who have amassed 16 between them. You could say that Erling Haaland has hit the ground running.

La carrière de Haaland en Angleterre est jeune. Le record de buts en Premier League pour des saisons de 38 matchs est de 31, établi en 2017-2018 par Mohamed Salah. Au moins, ça le gardera en forme pour la deuxième moitié de saison. Si la tendance actuelle devait se maintenir, Haaland en marquerait… Il en a 5 autres en 3 rencontres de Ligue des champions. Puis il a enchaîné avec un doublé en seulement 45 minutes de jeu, mercredi, contre Copenhague en Ligue des champions. Elle est bien sûr agrémentée de plusieurs primes à la signature, ainsi que d’un salaire hebdomadaire faramineux. En seulement 11 matchs avec Manchester City, Erling Haaland a fracassé les portes de la salle du trône et s’est imposé sur le siège. Haaland a 14 buts en 8 matchs de Premier League. En Angleterre, il vient d’enfiler trois tours du chapeau en trois matchs. Pendant cette période, City a continué de dominer. « À son âge, il n’y a pas un joueur qui puisse le concurrencer, a lancé son entraîneur Pep Guardiola, mardi.

Erling Haaland: Man City striker tops Champions League and ... (Sky Sports)

Will Man City striker Erling Haaland smash the all-time Premier League Golden Boot goal record of 32 goals in a 38-game season set by Mohamed Salah in 2018?

If rested in Copenhagen, he can focus on the Premier League for much of October. This does not feel like a hot streak, just the inevitable result of ice-cold finishing and a talent for the ages. The striker's current goal-rate sets him on course to finish the season on 108 goals in all competitions - if he were to maintain his strike-rate, game time and reach all finals. Domestically, we are already reaching beyond the Premier League for comparisons. but, the Norwegian is clearly set to break more records - and there is a growing sense he will rewrite the record scales entirely. There were no cheers but that was it - his second pass of the night. A coach who has built his success on a passing game now boasts the world's most formidable forward and yet he hardly passes the ball at all. Will Man City striker Erling Haaland smash the all-time Premier League Golden Boot goal record of 32 goals in a 38-game season set by Mohamed Salah in 2018? Play for free, entries by 3pm Saturday. Incredibly, this scoring phenomenon already had his second goal of the night by then. He hardly touches it at all. Haaland appears to be genuinely unstoppable when in full flow.
