Gary Lineker has expressed his disbelief at the phenomenal debut season Erling Haaland is having at Manchester City.
The striker netted all three goals in his side’s 3-0 win over Wolves on Sunday to keep them within viewing distance of Arsenal. Those strikes took him to 31 for the campaign, of which 25 have come in 19 Premier League matches.
His treble was the fourth hat-trick he’s hit this league season, thereby smashing a previous record held by former Manchester United attacker Ruud van Nistelrooy. The Dutchman has accomplished the same feat in 65 matches - for Haaland it has taken just 19.
