Erling Haaland scored another hat-trick for Manchester City in a 6-0 win over Nottingham Forest.
After his 19-minute trifecta against Crystal Palace at the weekend, Haaland was it again at the Etihad, firing in three goals within 26 minutes.
The Norway international has proved a scary proposition and Forest had absolutely no answers in Manchester as Haaland opened the scoring after 12 minutes, latching onto a cross from Phil Foden.
Haaland was then part of a fabulous one-touch passing move which ended with a loose ball tap-in for the second.
The 21-year-old made it 3-0 before half-time with elite physical manoeuvring to meet John Stones’ header.
Joao Cancelo then struck shortly after half-time before a double from Julian Alvarez sealed a resounding victory for Pep Guardiola’s side.
Speaking after the game, Guardiola said: “What he [Haaland] has done in Germany, he has done here. First ball contact, first goal. We have incredible strikers, incredible sense of smell for goals.
“Of course Haaland is stoppable if we don’t play good. The reason we always try to play well is to give our attacking players a chance to score goals.
“What Haaland wants is to win titles. Knowing him, he would not be happy to break records if we don’t win titles.
“Julian, we have seen from day one how he behaves, we have incredible opinions of him. The scouting department told me about him for a year and a half, he is special. Now we are enjoying having two strikers with incredible quality.
“Sergio [Aguero] is a legend, no-one can break his position in the hearts of Man City fans. But Erling has the quality to be there. It is not about him or Sergio, what he [Aguero] has done for this club is incredible.
“The numbers speak for themselves, we are prolific [19 goals in five games]. Against Newcastle we could not control transitions, against Palace we could not control set pieces. We controlled these today.
“These two players are so young, they want to prove themselves to the world, in the toughest league in the world. They have the ambition to win titles, to score goals. This gives extra energy for all of us. Step by step, game by game, we will be getting better.”
