Erling Haaland is enjoying another great season with Man City. He is leading the list of top scorers in the Premier League, helping The Citizens top the table.
Last season, he scored a total of 52 goals to help Man City win a treble, was the top scorer of the Premier League and Champions League, and broke many records in England and Europe. Despite scoring a lot of goals, Haaland sometimes still faces questions regarding his comprehensive play.
Brazilian legend Luis Fabiano also has the opinion that Haaland has an advantage when placed in a great system of Pep Guardiola. In a recent interview, Fabiano said:
“I can also break every record that Haaland has. With a team like that, with the opportunities he has? I will break his records.”
When journalist Benjamin Back said that Haaland had scored three consecutive hat-tricks, Fabiano continued:
“It’s thanks to my teammates, who created 30 chances for me. Partly it’s thanks to them, but also my quality in front of goal. Haaland had 30 chances and scored 3 goals. If there were 30 chances I will score 10 or 20 goals. That’s the difference.”
Fabiano is right to think that Man City has creative players like Foden, De Bruyne and Silva to create opportunities for Haaland. Last season, there were 9 The Citizens players with more than 5 assists, notably De Bruyne (31), Riyad Mahrez (13), Jack Grealish (11),…
Fabiano was born in 1980 and was a famous striker in the early years of the century. He scored 106 goals in 5 years for Sevilla and won 6 titles, including 2 UEFA Cups. Fabiano is gifted with skill, speed, strength and thinking. He was one of the best Brazilian strikers of his time, winning major trophies and loved by fans in Sao Paulo and Seville.
