Former player Antonio Cassano said that Haaland does not know how to play and needs a lot of improvement.
Erling Haaland is off to a dream start in his first season with Man City , scoring 45 goals in all competitions. The Norwegian player has broken many goalscoring records in the English Premier League as well as the Champions League.
However, Antonio Cassano still thinks that the Man City striker does not know how to play. The former Italian player shared on Bobo TV: “There are strikers who really know how to play like Robert Lewandowski or Karim Benzema. But Haaland is not. He is simply a phenomenon, a good goalscorer.
Haaland reminds me of Adriano in his prime at Inter Milan. It can be said that Haaland is a combination of Ibrahimovic and Adriano, although Ibrahimovic is more technical. Or he has a lot of mix between Adriano and Christian Vieri.”
Previously, in September last year, Antonio Cassano also said that Haaland was not as good as his teammate Julian Alvarez. “Haaland can score 90 goals a season and is physically strong but Alvarez is a better quality player,” said Antonio Cassano.
Currently, Haaland has 30 goals in the Premier League. He is only four goals short of Alan Shearer and Andy Cole’s single-season scoring record (both 34 goals). The Norwegian striker has 9 matches left to pass this milestone.
April 15 at 5:30 p.m. local time, Man City will face the team in the bottom group, Leicester City. Although the “green” Man must keep his strength for the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final against Bayern Munich in the middle of next week, coach Pep Guardiola still affirmed the importance of the match against Leicester City.
The Spaniard said: “Everyone knows that if Man City lose, the championship race will be over. We have to win the remaining matches, that’s a reality. When the games are over, we have to win the remaining matches. will know about the chance to win.”
