Haaland is not human, Grealish is clear. How have others reacted to yet another performance by the Norwegian assassin?

The odds on Erling Haaland scoring a goal are about to become the same as betting on the sun coming out tomorrow. Almost such a certainty is the 22-year-old hitman in a Manchester City jersey this current season. In Tuesday’s game against Copenhagen, he notched his second after just the 32nd minute.

In the opening 3 games, Haaland has already scored 5 goals, but not just any goals. The Norwegian striker has scored the winning goal in every game, which is a big deal!

He is 100% in this Champions League, his perfect stats are spoiled only by the Premier League, when he failed to score in 8 matches only against Bournemouth, but even so he managed to score at least one point for an assist in 74 minutes played.

“We always expect him to come through. He is a great player and we are very happy to have him in the team. It’s great to play alongside a player like that. I don’t see any way to stop him, he’s just not human.

Haaland, however, did not play the whole game and was replaced after the break by Cole Palmer at 3:0, when Pep Guardiola felt it was wise to save his key man for the next games, taking away his chance for another hat-trick.

“There was no plan to withdraw him. If the game had been even, Erling would have stayed on the pitch. But it made sense to rest him before the Southampton game,” the Spanish coach said after the game.

Copenhagen did not add any more points, as the goalless draw with Sevilla remains the only game in which they gained points. At the same time, the Danish team has not scored a single goal yet. However, coach Jacob Neestrup was sympathetic to the defeat.

“It’s not nice to lose 5:0, but we went on the pitch thinking that a miracle has to happen for us to get some points,” the 34-year-old coach did not expect any great result against the Citizens.
