If he scores another goal, then he will get to 34. This will put him past Alan Shearer and Andrew Cole, which happened over a long season of 42 games.

The reality today, it sounds naive, but we are behind Arsenal on the league table.” Gardiola said.

Arsenal Boss Mikel Arteta was full praise for Haaland after his heroics when Manchester City had beaten Arsenal 4-1.“When you look at the numbers, there is no comparison with anybody else,” Arteta told Indian Express on Tuesday. “He (Haaland) is able to produce that as well because the setup is done in the right way for him.“Even with him, they have the capacity to play in a different way.”
