MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Both Manchester City and Liverpool spent big to revamp their striker department in the close season, with Erling Haaland and Darwin Nunez tipped to be rivals atop the goalscoring charts, but so far it has been no contest.
City's capture of Haaland and Liverpool's addition of Nunez represented a style shift for both, focusing their forward lines around a central striker, as last season's title rivals tried something different.
Haaland has played in nine Premier League games to date, but nonetheless already holds the record for most goals and most goal involvements in a player's first 10 appearances in the competition's history. "I've never witnessed anything like it in my life. For the first and second goals I was just laughing. He is always there. The keeper said something to me as I was walking back. He said 'he's not human!' I said 'you're telling me?'"
