Rio Ferdinand claims Erling Haaland is 'taking the mick' after brace sends Manchester City top of the league with win over Everton... with figures described as 'PlayStation stats'

Erling Haaland regained his goalscoring form after an injury break in Manchester City's 2-0 win over Everton on Saturday.

After opening the scoring late in the second half, Haaland quickly doubled City's lead after cruising past Jarrad Branthwaite to fire past Jordan Pickford.

Making it six wins in a row, City were surprisingly quiet in the first half, though the Norweigan's fire power eventually broke through on goal.

Speaking after the match, Joleon Lescott described the Norweigan's goal tally as like 'PlayStation stats, you can't just predict that' he added.
