Manchester City Boss Pep Guardiola Lauds ‘Incredible’ Erling HaalandManchester City Boss Pep Guardiola Lauds ‘Incredible’ Erling Haaland Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has heaped praise on star striker Erling Haaland, describing him as “incredible” after another impressive performance in their 3-1 victory over Leeds United. Haaland, who joined City from Borussia Dortmund this summer, opened the scoring for the Premier League champions with a clinical finish in the 10th minute. He later added a second goal, his 19th of the season, to seal the victory. Speaking after the match, Guardiola hailed Haaland’s exceptional qualities. “He’s an incredible striker, one of the best I’ve ever seen,” Guardiola said. “He’s a machine in the box, and he’s always hungry for goals.” Guardiola also emphasized Haaland’s ability to adapt quickly to the Premier League. “He’s come from a different league, but he’s settled in very well,” Guardiola added. “He understands the game and he knows how to use his body.” Haaland’s performance against Leeds further cemented his status as one of the most sought-after strikers in the world. The Norwegian international has now scored 12 goals in his first eight Premier League appearances for City. Guardiola’s praise for Haaland reflects the striker’s immediate impact on the team. City have won all six of their league matches since Haaland joined the club, and they are now top of the table. With Haaland leading the line, City look set to be a force to be reckoned with in both the Premier League and the Champions League this season. The 22-year-old striker is a game-changer, and his arrival at the Etihad Stadium has given City a new dimension in attack.
