Haaland is swatting aside whatever competition is being put in front of him.<\/p>\n
He took his tally to 90 goals in 101 Premier League games during Sunday’s victory over Manchester United, four days after netting an astonishing five goals in Norway’s 11-1 hammering of Moldova.<\/p>\n
In Europe’s elite club competition, Haaland reached his half-century on Thursday night having scored 27 times for City, 15 for Borussia Dortmund and eight for RB Salzburg.<\/p>\n
The bulk of those (34) have come from his trusted left foot, with 11 from his right and a further five with his head, including the effort against Napoli.<\/p>\n
Former City goalkeeper Joe Hart said on TNT: “He looked dangerous, it is such a clever ball, to not break stride – it is the instinct of a pure goalscorer.<\/p>\n
“He looks fit, strong and hungry and I am really excited to see what he can achieve this season. You can have a near perfect game as a defender but as soon as you slip [he scores].”<\/p>\n
To underline how fast he has achieved the feat, Lionel Messi needed 66 matches to reach 50 goals in the competition, while Cristiano Ronaldo lagged way back by requiring 91.<\/p>\n
The Portuguese forward, though, is the top scorer with a 141 Champions League goals.<\/p>\n
Asked if Haaland can one day surpass Ronaldo’s mark, Guardiola said: “In that rhythm, yeah. He’s not injured, he could play for 10 or 12 more years, and he maintains this progression, absolutely.”<\/p>\n
Ex-City defender Joleon Lescott added: “He may not be the one who is having a great game, but if he is given a chance in front of goal he has a level of composure to execute.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
