Manchester City fell to Arsenal FC in a new Premier League matchday. However, one of the great concerns of the English team is the current level of the Norwegian footballer. Erling Haaland was positioned as one of the best players last season, but the start of this new campaign has not been the best of all. Although he has had goals in some games, he has already recorded 4 consecutive games without scoring.

 

Although the numbers in the domestic competition continue to prove the Mancunian team's '9' right, where he has eight goals in eight rounds of the 2023-2024 Premier League, rivals have learned to nullify Erling Haaland. As the player himself acknowledged in the interview given to The Telegraph before the match against Mikel Arteta's pupils, "the feeling is that they are doing more things to stop me, that they are putting more players on me."

A match from which Erling Haaland left visibly angry. On the way to the locker room tunnel, both the Norwegian and Kyle Walker confronted a member of Arsenal's technical staff. A small altercation broke out in the Gunner fiefdom's band and several Manchester City players came to separate their teammates.

 

Arsenal manages to defeat Manchester City

This victory is the North London team's first victory over the Citizens in the Premier League... since the end of 2015! It is also the first time since 2018 that Manchester City has lost two consecutive championship games, after the defeat last weekend against Wolverhampton (2-1). “A tight match in which we started well. They started well in the second half and changed the pace with Martinelli,” Pep Guardiola said in a press conference about his team's defeat. Although Arsenal's performance was not the cyborg's worst performance in recent weeks, since he participated more than in previous matches (23 touches), he gave two key passes and generated one of the two clear chances that Manchester City had against the gunners
