Manchester City defender Kyle Walker is facing a face against time to be fit for the World Cup after undergoing groin surgery.

My operation on Tuesday was a success and now I can concentrate on my rehab and getting back to full fitness. I will be supporting my team mates every day in any way I can." [A statement issued by City read](https://www.mancity.com/news/mens/kyle-walker-injury-update-63800644): "Kyle Walker has undergone surgery after suffering a groin injury to his left leg during the first half of our 6-3 win over Manchester United on Sunday. I will be supporting my team mates every day in any way I can. Southgate is set to name his squad on Oct. As players we have to appreciate injuries are part and parcel of the game we love.

Manchester City reached 100 victories in competitive European football with our 5-0 victory over FC Copenhagen on Wednesday.

We played a total of 794 completed passes on the night, compared to just 213 for our opponents. It was a truly dominant performance from the Blues, as we registered 75% posession and had 30 shots on goal. [Erling Haaland](https://www.mancity.com/players/erling-haaland)'s 18th and 19th City goals in just his 12th competitive match got us off to a flying start before an own goal made it three in the first half. [Jack Grealish](https://www.mancity.com/players/jack-grealish) and [Sergio Gomez](https://www.mancity.com/players/sergio-gomez) were constant menaces down the left side, with both popping up at crucial moments in the build-up to City goals. [Ederson](https://www.mancity.com/players/ederson) racked up his 100th win at the Etihad Stadium and [Ruben Dias](https://www.mancity.com/players/ruben-dias) marked his 100th City appearance with a clean sheet. [Mahrez](https://www.mancity.com/players/riyad-mahrez) converted a penalty on the night of his 200th City appearance to make it 4-0 before Julian Alvarez's fourth City goal completed the scoring.

Will Man City striker Erling Haaland smash the all-time Premier League Golden Boot goal record of 32 goals in a 38-game season set by Mohamed Salah in 2018?

If rested in Copenhagen, he can focus on the Premier League for much of October. This does not feel like a hot streak, just the inevitable result of ice-cold finishing and a talent for the ages. The striker's current goal-rate sets him on course to finish the season on 108 goals in all competitions - if he were to maintain his strike-rate, game time and reach all finals. Domestically, we are already reaching beyond the Premier League for comparisons. but, the Norwegian is clearly set to break more records - and there is a growing sense he will rewrite the record scales entirely. There were no cheers but that was it - his second pass of the night. A coach who has built his success on a passing game now boasts the world's most formidable forward and yet he hardly passes the ball at all. Will Man City striker Erling Haaland smash the all-time Premier League Golden Boot goal record of 32 goals in a 38-game season set by Mohamed Salah in 2018? Play for free, entries by 3pm Saturday. Incredibly, this scoring phenomenon already had his second goal of the night by then. He hardly touches it at all. Haaland appears to be genuinely unstoppable when in full flow.

It's early October. And yet Erling Braut Haaland already has 19 goals for the season, 14 in the Premier League and five in Europe. He's scored these 19 goals in ...

This extends right through to the architecture of the club. He tells us that this is a side built on an unusual sense of the collective, even to the point where the players are free - and actively encouraged - to tell their manager where he's going wrong. The men’s and women’s teams of all ages train on the first-team pitch and are all permanently based at the stadium. And of all the accolades and trophies coming his way, none will compare to that. The average age of the first XI in the league last season was 20.7 and 33-year-old Kian Hansen started 25 matches. Beyond the actual results, last night's edition of the Champions League turned into a self-contained Goal of the Week competition. Liberated by Chelsea's switch to a back three, he took clear and total possession of the entire right flank, managing to score one, make another, and keep Rafael Leao quiet for almost the entire game. And the key point of that blueprint? As a neutral, Haaland's compelling, in the same sort of way a video of a tree falling over is compelling. He contains both parts of the ideal striking partnership: the earth-shaking presence of the big man and the snaffling goal sense of the little man. Chelsea moved the ball quickly, threatened from all angles, and over the course of the evening they essentially overpowered Milan. At that point, we'll all be able to make a round of Halloween jokes - oh no, Guardiola was the scientist; this is Guardiola's Monster - but after that, we've got a serious problem.

Erling Haaland has praised his teammates for their role in his incredible start to life at Manchester City.

"I thought it would be hard work but I also knew that the players have been playing together for many years. I was coming into a team that scored a 100 goals last year so for me it was about coming in to the team to do what I do best." You never know.

Kyle Walker's chances of playing for England at the World Cup are rated as slim but the defender is refusing to give up hope after groin surgery.

Walker’s pace is vital, especially to cover Harry Maguire – who Southgate continues to trust on the left of the three, despite his struggles for form. I will be supporting my teammates every day in any way I can.” Southgate’s other options in central defence are Conor Coady, Marc Guéhi, Fikayo Tomori and, possibly, Ben White. Kyle Walker has undergone groin surgery, leaving the Manchester City defender facing World Cup heartbreak. Walker, though, refuses to give up hope. But he would not have wanted one of the absentees to be Walker, who he counts on as the right-sided defender in his back three and can also play at right wing-back or right-back in a four.

"He is one step forward from the other [academy players]. There are hints of both Grealish and Foden in his play, and all three have rare talent. But for now he’ll be limited to fleeting cameos for his club. He would surely thrive alongside the team’s big hitters such as Haaland, João Cancelo, and Kevin De Bruyne. “A top-class player, and he was looking forward to playing.” More appearances for City, and more displays of a skillset which combines inventiveness, flair, creativity, and at 6 foot 2, a considerable physical presence, will surely lead to the next step at international level.
