The draw between Manchester City and Arsenal did not bring too much excitement and chances, it ended without goals and practically without Erling Haaland's shot.
The Norwegian striker could not cope with the defenders of Arsenal, the opponent's midfield did a great job and blocked all approaches to the goal, so the "gunner" goalkeeper David Raja did not have too much to do.
Haaland played six games this season in the Premier League against the Top 5 teams (Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham and Aston Villa) and scored only one goal, so he received criticism from Manchester United legend Roy Keane. The grumpy Irishman is also known as someone who doesn't have a hair on his tongue, so he didn't spare Haaland either.
- Haaland's game is very weak. In front of goal he is the best in the world, but all in all - he is bad, very bad, at the level of players from the Fourth Division of England. He has to fix it and he will fix it, Keane said.
The numbers are still on Haaland's side. The former Borussia Dortmund striker has scored 18 goals in 24 Premier League games this season, as well as six in seven Champions League matches. He managed all this even though he was out of the field due to a foot injury for more than a month and a half - from December 10 last year to January 6 this year.
