Erling Haaland's goal-scoring prowess has been on full display once again for Manchester City, as the Norwegian striker continues to dominate in front of goal. After a rare malfunction last weekend at Aston Villa, where he failed to score and City lost, Haaland was back to his deadly self against Bournemouth, scoring two goals and cementing his status as one of the most feared strikers in the Premier League.
Haaland's impressive form has been compared to that of football legends like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo by City boss Pep Guardiola. The 25-year-old has scored an astonishing 13 times in just 10 Premier League games, with 65% of his team's goals coming from him this season. His numbers are truly staggering, with a high xG rating of 9.20, suggesting he is scoring more than expected based on the number of chances he creates.
Despite being hailed as a goal machine, Haaland has been criticized for not involving himself in play enough, but his performances on the pitch have consistently shown that this criticism is unfounded. His partnership with French midfielder Rayan Cherki is particularly exciting, with the two players showing promising chemistry on the pitch.
As City look to maintain their grip on top spot in the Premier League, Haaland will be a key player in their success. With his exceptional goal-scoring record and clinical finishing ability, he is likely to continue breaking records and defying expectations. As one former goalkeeper put it, "You run out of superlatives" when describing Haaland's performances on the pitch.
Haaland's incredible form has also sparked debate about whether City rely too heavily on him. However, with his exceptional goal-scoring record, it is hard to argue against his importance to the team. As he continues to excel, fans and pundits alike will be eagerly anticipating what's next from this talented Norwegian striker.
