There's only one king, Salah provokes Haaland fury, Guardiola under pressure

Manchester City took the game -necessary for the Sky Blues, their morale and their race to catch up with Arsenal, sole leaders of the Premier League- against Wolverhampton with a 3-0 win and took a step forward that allows them to breathe after recent setbacks (although they came from beating Tottenham) but the highlight of the match was not so much that they accumulated their second win in a row, but that their scorer is in historical records.

So much so that he is just seven goals away from reaching the best scoring record with 38 Premier League games, set by Mo Salah in 2017/18 at 32 goals; Haaland, after the hat-trick against Wolves and with 19 games played this season in the English league, reaches 25 goals, with a devastating average that if maintained will not only pulverise the Egyptian's records but will go straight for those of the best Leo Messi in the goalscoring plane, in the 2011/12 campaign.

As we said, Haaland has scored 25 goals in the English league this season and has done so in just 19 games, having missed the game against Leicester (matchday 14) of the 20 his team has played this season (the Sky Blues still have to play on matchday 12, precisely against Arsenal), so he is on a progression that could be identical to that of Messi, who in the 2011/12 season scored 50 goals in LaLiga with Barça.

<strong>Haaland wants Salah&#39;s mark</strong>

And we say identical because Erling Halaand's average this season in the British competition is 1.3157 goals per game: guess who had the same average and when he had it? Indeed, the Argentinian, on that particular date. And do you know who his manager was, also obviously, the same as the Scandinavian's manager at the moment? Pep Guardiola.
