Shearer: I am running out of words to describe Haaland

Week after week Erling Haaland continues to obliterate opposition defences as he netted ANOTHER hat-trick in Manchester City's 3-1 success against West Ham United.

Haaland produced an array of finishes in east London, slotting in his first goal past Alphonse Areola and lashing an emphatic strike into the roof of the net for his second before completing his hat-trick with a delightful chip.

The Norwegian’s treble moves him closer to Sergio Aguero's record of 12 Premier League hat-tricks, and because of that superb display at London Stadium, Alan Shearer, the Premier League's record goalscorer and Hall of Fame inductee, has named Haaland in his Team of the Week that features players from SIX different clubs.

Dean Henderson (Crystal Palace)
"His six saves including one to deny Nicolas Jackson one-on-one late on meant Palace could claim a first point of the season."

Nathan Collins (Brentford)
"An assured display at centre-back, with no team-mate matching his five clearances."

Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool)
"Another immense performance by Liverpool's captain."

Lucas Digne (Aston Villa)
"Was so assured for Villa and combined a fine defensive display with an assist for Jhon Duran's winning goal."

Ryan Gravenberch (Liverpool)
"For all the talk of Liverpool needing a midfielder, Gravenberch has stepped up massively. Won possession on a number of occasions and was a threat going forward."

Lewis Cook (AFC Bournemouth)
"What a time to score your first Premier League goal, getting the equaliser in another famous Bournemouth comeback."

Kevin De Bruyne (Man City)
"The Belgian was unfortunate to go without an assist with his usual penetrating passes and also struck the woodwork with a fierce shot."

Mikkel Damsgaard (Brentford)
"Stood out in winning tackles and regaining possession as Brentford’s press harried Southampton towards defeat."

Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)
"He just loves this fixture. Two assists, another goal, could have scored a hat-trick. Hopefully it won't be his last match at Old Trafford."

Erling Haaland (Man City)
"I am running out of words to describe this goalscoring phenomenon. In the blink of an eye he took all hope away from West Ham by restoring their lead and then ending the contest with his hat-trick."

Luis Diaz (Liverpool)
"A livewire from the first minute. Man Utd couldn't handle his pace or skill and he capped off another excellent display with a brace."

Manager: Arne Slot (Liverpool)
"What an incredible start he's had at the club. He's got Liverpool almost perfectly tuned after only three matches in charge."
