But with 11 games still to play - including welcoming Arsenal to the Etihad - Haaland remains focused on his own side's results. [Pep Guardiola's](https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/all-about/pep-guardiola) side were some way short of their best at Selhurst Park, but know the importance of picking up three points regardless. The striker was named on the bench for Sunday's top-flight trip to Fulham having not played since picking up a knee injury at last year’s World Cup.

Manchester City goalpoacher, Erling Haaland is assured his side will replace Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table come the end of the season.

It’s not that bad, we have to keep going. “We have them (Arsenal) at home and a lot of games left to play still. “Of course, I don’t like to miss chances. I just do as I do every game, focus on my game. “We have to play different ways. “We have to keep going.

[Roberto Firmino](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/147234/Roberto-Firmino) could be responsible for the domino effect that will get in the way of [Joao Felix](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/276350/joao-felix)'s desire to make his loan at Chelsea permanent, according to [AS](https://as.com/futbol/primera/en-inglaterra-aseguran-que-firmino-interesa-al-atletico-n/). [Manchester United](/soccer/team?id=360) and [Liverpool](/soccer/team?id=364) are among five [Premier League](/soccer/league/_/name/ENG.1) clubs interested in signing [Fulham](/soccer/team?id=370) midfielder [Joao Palhinha](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/224144/joao-palhinha), according to [the Sun](https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/21682553/man-utd-joao-palhinha-transfer-arsenal-chelsea-fulham/). In addition, the Sun believe that [Tottenham Hotspur](/soccer/team?id=367), [Arsenal](/soccer/team?id=359) and [Chelsea](/soccer/team?id=363) are also interested in the Portuguese player, who only joined the Cottagers last summer from [Sporting Lisbon](/soccer/team/_/id/2250/sporting-cp). However, Simons has scored 14 goals and added six assists following his move to Holland, a run of form that's not only prompting his old employers to feel a tinge of regret in letting let go, but also for PSV to try and extend the striker's stay. [Nathan Ake](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/159248/Nathan-Aké) is deputising in the position in Cancelo's absence admirably, but it's not his first or favoured position, and so Guardiola is scouring the market for a suitable option this summer. PSG have an option for a permanent deal at €12m, but ultimately the player has the final say, and though he would appear happy in the Eredivisie, he could be tempted by a move to England. [Newcastle United](/soccer/team?id=361) are leading the race for [PSV Eindhoven](/soccer/team?id=148)'s 19-year-old star [Xavi Simons](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/332962/Xavi-Simons), according to [Ekrem Konur](https://twitter.com/Ekremkonur/status/1634847666076262400). Chelsea are currently 11 points off fourth place and though they have a game in-hand on [Tottenham Hotspur](/soccer/team?id=367) in the last Champions League spot, they may have too much ground to make up. Martinez, whose contract comes to an end this summer, is just as interested in joining Camp Nou as Barcelona are on having him, but a move could depend on Barca's ability to solve lingering salary limit issues. The Madrid hierarchy are coming to the conclusion that Mbappe's overall demeanour might not suit the club, while they're also reluctant to do business with PSG. [Mason Mount](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/231167/Mason-Mount) and [Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/122260/Pierre-Emerick-Aubameyang).

Erling Haaland stepped up to the spot and scored, as he so often does. This is the best trophy and compliment we can have.
