‘I’d be absolutely raging’… Alan Shearer reacts after what Pep Guardiola did at Man City recently
Alan Shearer has delivered his verdict on what Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola did during his side’s win over Wolves.
The defending Premier League champions𓆏 have come a step closer to retaining their throne. They battered Wo✃lves at the Etihad on Saturday, scoring five past them.
Erling Haaland was on fire in that game. He scored four🎃 times, including a first-half hat-trick🅘, and silenced many of his critics with his performance.
Alan Shearer delivers verdict on Pep Guardiola’s Erling Haaland decision
Erling Haaland has been through a lot in ꦦrecent week💮s.
The Norwegian went through a spell of scoring just four goals in 10 Premier League games following his return from injury, and that led to a fair bit of criticism.
However, Haaland is back to his best now and has scored eighᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚt goals in his last four league appearances for Manchester City.
Four of those came in💛 the game against Wolves on Saturday, and if he had played the fuꦦll 90 minutes, he probably would’ve scored one or two more.
However, Pep Guardiola decided to take him ofꦏf in the 82nd minute of the game, and Haaland was absolutely furious.
The former Borussia Dortmund man was really unhappy anꦅd could be seen voicing his frustrations even after he got to the💃 bench.
That reaction has led to some serious criticism, with Roy Keane branding Haaland as a ‘spoilt brat’.
Shearer has now jumped to the Manchester City forward’s defenc⛦e and claimed that he would be ‘raging’ too if he was in Haaland’s shoes.
Speaking abo♉ut his reaction, Shearer said on the : “I loved it. Why shouldn’t he be fuming? So he should be fuming. I’d be fuming. I’d be absolutely raging.
“You’re on four goals and you’ve got 1🍌0 or 15 minutes left and he takes you (off). No, I would be exactly the same as him.
“He’s on a high, he’s flying, he hasn’t scored goals for a while, he has got criticism, he’s🌃 got fou💛r, he’s back in the groove…”

People forget one thing about Erling Haaland
Some of the criticism that has come Erling Haaland’s way is just ridiculous.🌠
Manchester City spent the big bucks on the Norway international for one reason – to score goals. He h💧as been doing that in style.
In 41 appearances in al﷽l compet♍itions this season, Haaland has scored 36 goals and provided six assists. What more can he do?
Y𝕴es, the striker’s link-up play could improve, but people forget that Haaland is still only 23 years old. What he’s doi𒁃ng at his age is just extraordinary.
Haaland should ignore all his critics and co♊ntinue to do what he’s doing.
