There aren’t many goalscorers in football than Erling Haaland – but the big man knows there are other parts of his game that other players are far superior.
The Norwegian is absolutely lethal in front of goal.
So far at City he has scored 60 goals in just 64 games.
He’s actually on a bit a drought at the moment by his standards.
But it won’t stay that way for long, and City fans would love him to find the net in today’s game against Arsenal.
Ahead of that huge game, Haaland sat down to do an interview with Sky Sports – with the interviewer being none other than Jack Grealish…
Haaland tells Grealish which trait of his he would have
Grealish and Haaland were interviewing each other which made for an interesting and refreshing dynamic.
And at one point, Grealish asks Haaland which trait of his he would have.
Haaland replied: “Easy, the ball control and the touch. Every time he gets the ball he never loses it so. It would easily be that.
“And also, every time he has the ball and it looks like he’s going to lose it or they’re going to tackle him, he just touches the ball away.
“I think I could use that, really good. In my game especially.”
Haaland with Grealish’s ball control would be truly frightening
I would be a truly scary prospect if Haaland had the ball control of Grealish.
Haaland’s touch is actually pretty good. In terms of taking balls down out of the sky, the Norwegian is pretty handy. We saw it just this week for the Jeremy Doku goal against RB Leipzig.
But Haaland doesn’t really carry the ball amazingly well like his City teammate Grealish.
Not that he needs to though.
His incredible goalscoring prowess is what he’s about, and is all City fans will really care about.
