Manchester City still in steamroller mode. This Saturday, the Citizens did not hesitate in front of their supporters against the promoted Ipswich by winning with a score of 4 goals to 1.
As is often the case, Erling Haaland found the back of the net. The Norwegian striker made the net tremble three times on the Etihad Stadium pitch. The number 9 already brings his total to 4 goals in 2 league matches.
Present at the post-match press conference, Pep Guardiola is no longer surprised by his player who has continued to perform in the truth zone since his arrival at the club in the summer of 2022. The Catalan technician even sent a strong message to his player by comparing him to Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
“He scored goals in Salzburg, Germany, the numbers are crazy. He can compete with Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in terms of goals. The numbers are incredible at his young age. He is an incredible threat and we are happy to have him. We hope he stays here for many years, it would be really good for us,”
he added.
Before continuing: “This season he didn’t play in the Euros and he came back in shape. We talked a bit in the States. I didn’t like some things about him which made him change his mind. Of course, he can’t play every game until the end of the season. You know how important statistics are and his goal tally is incredible.”
