Erling Haaland is so far scoring goals for Manchester City, the Norwegian striker makes his name one of the best striker in the 2022/23 Premier League season.
Speaking at his press conference before the Champions League match against Copenhagen, City head coach Pep Guardiola said no one in all of football can stop him to score more goals at the same age of 22.
“At his age no one can compete with him. The numbers speak for themselves and inside, in the locker room, and on the pitch we see things that are not in the stats that make us feel happy to have him here.” Guardiola said.
“Haaland’s gestures outside the field with the boys and the staff at the club are very impressive. He is not only a good striker, but also a good person. This partly comes from his education.” Guardiola added.
Haaland has scored three hat-tricks, scoring 17 goals for City in 11 games this season. He became a nightmare for Premier League defenders thanks to his diverse finishing skills, tall physique and dizzying speed.
The former Borussia Dortmund forward has scored 14 of City’s 29 goals from the beginning of the Premier League season.
Haaland is expected to break many goalscoring records in England, including 34 goals in a season. He reached half this figure in just eight games.
