Erling Haaland’s performance in the Premier League is nothing short of impressive. He has achieved back-to-back hattricks, a record which has only been achieved 7 times in the premier league history.
In his first five games of the Premier League, Erling Haaland had already scored 9 goals. There is no player who has such a good start to the Premier League.
Haaland scored 9 goals in 5 games
Man City won their game against Nottingham Forest with a convincing 6-0. In the game, Erling Haaland completed his hat trick in just the first half. City bought in Haaland in order to be the heir to Sergio Aguero, who has scored 8 goals in his first 5 Premier League games.
Guardiola commented on Haaland by saying that Haaland’s priority is to win titles, and Haaland would not be happy if the team does not win titles, even if Haaland is able to break records. Guardiola said that Sergio Aguero will always be a legend in the fans’ hearts, and Haaland has the ability to become the next Man City legend.
Haaland completed his hat trick in the first half!
In the game against Nottingham Forest, Erling Haaland combined with Phil Foden to pierce through the defence and score the first goal. Only 11 minutes later, he combined with Foden again and fired a shot from a close range to make it 2-0 for Manchester City. In the 38th minute, Haaland scored a wonderful header for Man City, completing his record-breaking hat trick.
With the 9 goals in his first 5 games, Haaland’s individual goals alone are more than 15 Premier League team goals. This is an early sign that Haaland will be dangerous to every Premier League defender.
