Manchester City’s manager, Pep Guardiola, has openly disagreed with Roy Keane’s assessment of Erling Haaland, the club’s Norwegian striker. Keane, a former professional footballer, had previously described Haaland as a “League Two player.” Guardiola, however, countered this opinion by stating, “I’m not agreeing with him, absolutely not.”
Guardiola further praised Haaland, highlighting his significant contribution to Manchester City’s successes in the previous season. “He is the best striker in the world and helped us to win what we won last season. He’s exceptional,” Guardiola remarked.
