Erling Haaland, the talented forward for Manchester City, recently made some bold statements about not caring about the opinions of former Manchester United captain, Roy Keane. In response, Keane called Haaland a "spoilt brat" and has been quite critical of his recent performances. Even after scoring four goals in a recent victory, Haaland didn't hold back in his response to Keane, stating that he doesn't pay much attention to him.
Despite his impressive performance, Haaland seemed visibly frustrated when he was substituted in the 82nd minute of the game against Wolves. His coach, Pep Guardiola, tried to calm him down and explained to reporters that Haaland was simply upset about the number of fouls that had gone unnoticed by the referee. But Keane, who never shies away from speaking his mind, couldn't resist reigniting his feud with Haaland when discussing Liverpool's motivation levels in their upcoming match against City.
Keane believes that players should always motivate themselves and have pride in representing their club, especially when the manager and fans are counting on them. He also pointed out that Haaland's behavior during the recent game against Wolves, where he threw a piece of strapping to the ground in frustration, was unacceptable. Despite his impressive goal-scoring record, Keane believes that Haaland's behavior is amplified when his team is not performing well.
Keane also mentioned his famous feud with Haaland's father and how that can affect a player's performance and behavior on the field. He believes that the recent spat between Haaland and his coach, as well as the team's poor results, have contributed to his behavior. But Keane expects Liverpool to bounce back and put in a good performance against Tottenham, as they will want to end the season on a high note and show their support for their departing manager.
When asked if it was acceptable for a player to behave like a "spoilt brat" after scoring four goals, Keane firmly stated that it was not. His words may seem harsh, but Keane has always been known for his no-nonsense approach and speaking his mind. It will be interesting to see how Haaland and his team respond to his comments in their next game.
