ERLING HAALAND’S blistering goalscoring form is becoming such a joke that even Arsenal’s dressing room find it funny.
The Manchester City striker, 24, has netted NINE goals in his first four league games this term.
And Arsenal are next in the Norwegian’s sights with Sunday’s Prem title showdown at the Etihad.
Gunners midfielder Jorginho revealed: “Erling scoring again is starting to make us laugh!
“We look because we look at all the games and we love football.”
Arsenal can go above leaders City with a win as they bid for a first Premier League title in 25 years.

Italy star Jorginho insists Mikel Arteta’s side do not fear Haaland despite his 99 goals in 103 games under boss Pep Guardiola.
He added: “It doesn’t get to our head. We need to focus on us and that is what we are trying to do.”
Haaland is on course to smash his own Prem record tally of 36 goals from the 2022-23 season.
If he continues at the current rate, he would net 86 this campaign!

Former Arsenal centre-back William Gallas, 47, warned: “This is a guy who is in beast mode.
“He looks like he is going to break every scoring record in the Premier League this season.
“It’s impossible to predict how many he will get but you can say with confidence it will be loads.”
Haaland’s brace in City’s 2-1 win over Brentford saw him overtake Wayne Rooney’s record of the most goals scored in the first four games of a Prem season.
The goal machine will be looking for his 10th goal of the new campaign against Arsenal on Sunday, after bagging back-to-back hat-tricks against Ipswich and West Ham.
