Manchester City are into the second half of the season and will want to turn their gears on. They trail 5 points behind Arsenal with a game in hand to the Gunners. City legend Sergio Aguero believes Haaland will break all the records but can’t win a title on his own. Only Leo Messi can.
Aguero on Haaland:
Haaland has scored 31 goals in his first 27 appearances for the club. Haaland will have to be very consistent to help City win the league as they aim to come back into the title race.
Aguero said, “We’ll have to see that yet. There’s still plenty the season to go. Haaland, who has been racking metrics that will break historical records, will play a major part of it. In any case, except Leo, there’s no one player who can win a league on their own. It’s about the team, and City’s got a very talented roster and an exceptional staff. They’ve given plenty of evidence of their great stature, and you know they’ll fight until the very end.”
Aguero added on an intriguing battle with Arsenal: “I wouldn’t say that Man City aren’t clicking. The Premier League is the most competitive league there is, and it’s perfectly normal to see the top contenders get reinforcements and go back to their historical standards. It wouldn’t be long for Arsenal or United to get back into the fold. The two of them suffered the aftermath of two very successful cycles – Wenger’s and Ferguson’s – and now they’ve returned in force. City has won four out of the five last Premier Leagues. They’re still in the fight, and that needs to be recognised. Prowling from the second position, ready to strike – anything can happen.”
Pep Guardiola and Haaland will have to fight their way to the top if they want to win a third consecutive title.
