“I can’t bench him for you no matter how bad he plays, he will always start all matches for Manchester City except when he’s injured”- Pep Guardiola says he has an untouchable player he can never sub off after snubbing a player who was already on the touch line against Young Boys
Even Erling Haaland, the superstar of Manchester City, would find it difficult to score goals at Manchester United, according to Gabby Agbonlahor.
The contentious analyst, who was speaking to talkSPORT, presented this assertion as more of a critique of United’s attack than of the £51 million (Sky Sports) player.
Even Erling Haaland, though, would ultimately disappoint Gabby Agbonlahor at Manchester United, in her opinion.
Erling Haaland, the Norwegian striker who has been dubbed a “incredible threat” by Pep Guardiola, is presently the highest scorer in the Premier League with nine goals in nine games. However, Gabby Agbonlahor believes the player would be a disaster at Manchester United.
Haaland scored an incredible 52 goals in 53 games the previous season, leading Manchester City to an unprecedented treble.
But Gabby Agbonlahor offered a succinct assessment of Erling Haaland’s chances of succeeding in a Manchester United uniform.
“Haaland wouldn’t score in the Premier League for this Man United team,” he declared.
“They deprive him [Rasmus Hojlund] of assists; Antony receives the ball, cuts inside, but fails to cross the ball; Marcus Rashford likewise does not cross the ball for him; nobody does it!”
Erling Haaland is a prolific scorer wherever he plays.
Although Manchester United struggles to produce any opportunities, one can see Gabby Agbonlahor’s criticism; nonetheless, as a goalscorer, the Leeds native is genuinely unique.
Whether playing for Manchester City, Borussia Dortmund, or RB Salzburg, the 23-year-old has consistently demonstrated that he was made to score goals.
As was the case at Dortmund, Haaland would actually have the time of his life at a team that relies heavily on transition, like United.
Erik ten Hag could create the most terrifying break assault in history with the help of the treble champion, who would only step up the Red Devils’ offensive game.
Erling Haaland would find a way to be prolific despite the fact that most Premier League strikers could be deprived of opportunities at Old Trafford due to his exceptional physical profile and finishing ability.
