Manchester City's Erling Haaland has continued his impressive form this season, leading the Premier League top scorer chart with 18 goals so far. The Norwegian forward has been in prolific form for the Citizens, scoring eight goals in their opening seven games of the campaign.
Haaland's performances have not gone unnoticed, as he has become the first player to score more than one goal in each of his first five appearances in the competition since Bobby Moore did it in 1962-63. He is also just two behind Manchester United's Wayne Rooney (1995-96) when considering the number of goals scored in the first six matches of the season.
Despite the impressive start to the season, there are still concerns about Haaland's long-term sustainability at City. The striker has already played 77 games for the club, which is more than any other Premier League player. However, he has only started 42 of those games and has struggled with injuries in recent years.
City will be hoping that Haaland can continue his good form over the remainder of the season and help the team secure a place in next year's Champions League. The Norwegian has shown his potential to be a world-class striker, but he will need to prove himself on the international stage if he wants to make a serious impact in the game.
