Erling Holland is the star who created miracles in the English Premier League. The player who came to Manchester City from the Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund has given City a goal-scoring year.
Holland has scored 25 goals in the Premier League so far from 19 Premier League matches.
But the fans are criticizing from many angles that Hallandipol is only a shadow of the performance he showed during his early days at City.
And in City’s 1-0 loss against Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday, Haaland failed to make a single touch or take a shot in the penalty box. Haaland has been very pale in some matches before.
But now Jamie Carragher, who was a legendary player of Liverpool, has come forward saying that Haaland is not able to play consistently because he is in Manchester City.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Carragher made his comments about Haaland clear.
“I feel Haaland picked the wrong club when he was in great form.
You can laugh at me if you want to hear me out. But the truth is, City are unable to fully utilize Haaland. It’s not Holland’s fault,’ said Jamie Carragher.
“Certainly City are a different team. I have no doubt about it. Haaland has scored 25 goals so far. I believe the rest of the team has scored as many goals. But they may have conceded more goals than that,’ he added.
“I felt that the style of play under Pep Guardiola did not suit Haaland. Haaland is a player capable of playing counter football. Not Guardiola’s style,’ said Jamie Carragher.
At the same time, Manchester City lost a crucial chance to reduce the lead with Arsenal in the Premier League points table in the match against Tottenham. With this, Man City is now five points behind Arsenal in the first place in the league table.
Arsenal are in first place with 50 points from 20 matches. City have 45 points from 21 matches.
