Erling Haaland on course to break Mohamed Salah and Thierry Henry’s records: unstoppable Manchester City striker targets third Golden Boot in quest for domestic treble


If Haaland maintains his goalscoring pace, City will remain in contention for more major titles. The club has already won the Carabao Cup in 2026, occupies first place in the Premier League and reached the semi-finals of the FA Cup, where it will challenge Championship side Southampton on Saturday.

Asked about the possibility of Guardiola’s side going all the way and achieving another domestic treble, Dickov replied: “Yes, I think so.

“If, three or four weeks ago, we had said that City, then nine points behind Arsenal in the league, were going to win the Carabao Cup final against the Gunners, eliminate Liverpool in the FA Cup, win at Chelsea then beat Arsenal again to regain the lead in the standings, no one would have believed it.

But in the space of a month, the situation has completely changed. They now have all the cards in hand to achieve this. That wouldn’t surprise me. They are expected to beat Southampton in the FA Cup, no disrespect to the Saints. And I think they will win their last five league games.

To go from a season that seemed headed for a trophy void – an unthinkable prospect for City two years in a row – to an incredible chance of winning the domestic treble, I don’t think it’s beyond their reach. »
