The 25-year-old striker revealed that being promoted to father of a young boy helped him excel on the field, but no one expected Haaland 's scoring efficiency to be so fierce.

With a double against Everton within 5 minutes (58', 63'), Haaland decided the victory for Man City , bringing the team to 2nd place after 8 matches in the Premier League.

This is the 5th time this season (4 for Man City, 1 with the Norwegian national team) that Haaland has scored a double. And those 2 goals marked his 22nd and 23rd goals (in addition to 3 assists) after 13 matches for Man City and the Norwegian national team.

And there are other shocking numbers: Haaland has scored in 11 consecutive matches, and has scored all 7 of Man City's most recent goals.

In those 11 consecutive matches, Haaland scored 21 goals – more than his father – Alf Inge, scored in his entire career.

So far, the only match since the beginning of the season where Pep's number 1 goalscorer has been quiet was in the match Man City 0-2 Tottenham (August 23).

After the Man City 2-0 Everton match, coach David Moyes turned to goal machine Haaland and exclaimed: " I wish he played somewhere else ", which says a lot.

Pep Guardiola was very excited about his student, saying: " He can score 4 or 5 goals at the end of the game. Haaland is a key player for Man City but the team cannot rely on him alone to win.

So our wingers, attacking midfielders and other players have to push forward. When the chances we create are so clear, you have to score .”

While Haaland has scored 9 goals in 8 matches, leading the Premier League's top scorer list this season, Man City only has 4 other players participating in scoring and each has only 1 goal.

Regarding this, the captain spoke up: “ They are all very good. I have seen their ability in training sessions very well and I have no doubts. If they are lucky, they will score .”

Man City's next match is away to Villarreal in the Champions League group stage.
