'He has to' - Kyle Walker sets Man City star Erling Haaland Premier League challenge

Manchester City defender Kyle Walker has told teammate Erling Haaland that "he has to" continue his goalscoring form for the club, as he claimed that the Norwegian "set the bar so high" for himself this season.

Haaland has been scoring at an unrivalled rate for City. The former Borussia Dortmund forward has found the back of the net 21 times in the Premier League this term, with Tottenham's Harry Kane six strikes behind the 22-year-old on 15 goals.

Pep Guardiola will be delighted with how quickly his new signing has hit the ground running. Haaland has also scored five times in four Champions League appearances and added a Carabao Cup goal in his one run-out in the competition for good measure.
