'He's a perfect fit' - ex-City duo laud Haaland impact (Manchester City FC)

Matchday Live guests Steve Howey and Trevor Sinclair believe Erling Haaland's work off the ball could be just as important as his work on it after watching ...

“His mentality is fantastic and provided he can steer clear of injury, I think he’s going to score an unbelievable number of goals for City.” “I love his mentality because as well as his undoubted physicality, when he scores his goals, you can see him waving his arms and making little gestures to anyone who is doubting him. “I’ve had little discussions with Alfie, his dad, and I just knew he would fly in this league because he’s got the physique and power plus, he is direct, aggressive and he’s almost a throwback to the traditional number nine of yesteryear combined with the modern striker because he has the attributes of both.

Harry Kane vs Erling Haaland – Who Comes Out On Top? (The Sport Review)

Harry Kane and Erling Haaland are two of the most talented strikers in the Premier League. Haaland completed a big-money transfer to Manchester City from.

If you’re wondering whether to include Kane or Haaland in your fantasy football team, then both players are excellent options. In the 2020-21 campaign, Haaland scored 27 goals and made six assists in 28 Bundesliga outings. In the 2021-22 season, Kane scored 17 goals and made nine assists in 37 Premier League games. His tally made him the top scorer in the Champions League for that season. Kane’s record in the Champions League is also pretty impressive. In 2021-22, Haaland scored three goals in three games in the Champions League.

Scout Picks Gameweek 4 early selection: Haaland v Kane? (Fantasy Football Scout)

We've put together our Scout Picks 'bus team' ahead of Gameweek 4 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL). For those who haven't seen this article series before, ...

Ivan Toney (£7.2m) is another mid-price forward nominee, and will surely be in the conversation for a forward spot. Given that it was the same old story for opponents Wolverhampton Wanderers in Gameweek 3 (look sharp but fail to score), Pope and Trippier stand out. However, a home match against Crystal Palace won’t be a cakewalk for the reigning champions, especially defensively, given injuries to Aymeric Laporte (£5.9m) and perhaps Nathan Ake (£5.0m), who limped off with a groin problem on Sunday. As a result, it does feel like their assets are an avoid for now, despite taking on a West Ham United side who have lost three and failed to score so far this season. Indeed, Martinelli racked up match-leading totals for goal attempts (four) and shots in the box (three), while Jesus had an effort narrowly ruled out by VAR. Kane made it two goals in two matches and hit the crossbar from a Kulusevski cross in Gameweek 3, and that’s where one of this week’s main dilemmas lies.

Perisic perhaps has the edge, as even if Spurs do concede at a raucous City Ground, his ability in the final-third could lead to goals and assists.
