I really don't think you took notice of what Roy said about Haarland, Roy said he's fantastic striker ,but is play in build up is often not so good ,so he's correct.
So a league 2 player then.
Spot on! Just shows you how dumb the media are
What do you expect from talksport😂
Ahh mate it’s the media sensationalising things again
Everyone seems to leave out the quote where he said Haaland is the best finisher in the world as well, more clickbaity to only mention the negative thing he said.
Peps response was absolutely fantastic. Funny as fcuk
His attempts at sarcasm are painful. Not his first time trying it...
@@james_44they’re deliberately bad attempts, that’s the idea which you’ve managed to miss. It’s to clearly make a fool of the reporter asking the question.
If Haaland is regarded as the best footballer in the world this sport is beyond washed, both in quality and entertainment.
He's not even in top 5 Best players
Isn't his main job to score goals?
@@JMatthew131
Read my comments. There is no “main job”.
@@JMatthew131Best goalscorer and best footballer are two different discussions.
@@thierryhenry674 so a defender's main job is not to defend but be available for a through pass for a tapin then?
RVN was blasted for being "only a penalty box/ cheap goal player, tap in merchant" by everybody. Some one fails to lick Haalands back side and we have pundits jumping to defend his honour. Jeez, pack it in
And RVN was a decent footballer
@@Kamva-nm8bt Funny enough he could hold the ball up as well
The most frustrating thing about this is that Strikers seemingly are now judged on "build up" rather than goalscoring, which is obscene.
Same with goalkeepers where footwork is nearly seen as important as shot stopping. Full backs have to be progressive rather than tacking. Crazy.
I know that i would much rather have Haaland than Toney, Courtois over Ederson and Carvajal over Trent.
3 guys who apparently arent modern in their positions
The most frustrating thing about a smartphone is that they are now judged on their cameras, apps and other functionalities that has nothing to do with dialing.
Isn’t the purpose of a phone is to call other people? How ridiculous is that people think checking social media and listening to music on a phone is just as important as dialing?
Exactly
I mean. You can be stuck with traditional roles... or understand the game is changing, a lot more is expected than simply filling one role. I'd much rather have many strikers over haaland. Bc our team sucks and we wouldn't be able to provide him service, I'd rather have someone who can create their own chances. Most lower table teams would and that's not haaland. That's the point. He's elite If his midfield is elite. And he is invisible if their aren't.
Then why do majority of fans give Ronaldo stick? He went back to the Premier league as a goal scorer and got slammed because he didn't press lmao. Didn't see you defend him.
@@bleb87 Mate, the reason why VVD is the best CB in the world is because of his DEFENDING. Nothing to do with ball playing. Thibaut Courtois pretty much won the champions league for Madrid in 22 because of his shot stopping. Not from playing out from the back which is ridiculous that it's seen as an essential.
Haaland scored 36 goals in the prem last season. 36 GOALS. and now he's being vilified because he doesn't link up play.
It’s funny how Danny described harry kane but didn’t realise it lol. Having the discipline to not chase the ball when you aren’t getting much touches and being able to stay switched is a hard skill to master that Haaland has.
Goes to show how we lack straight talking characters these days what Keane said has been clipped up to about 8 videos now 4 of which are talksport😂
Van Nistelrooy was only a goal machine and i wernt complaining back in those days.
You guys didn't understand Roy kaene criticism.... he didn't say whether he is not the best in scoring goals.....he says if you take away his goals...... he literally does Nothing or contribute to the team .........
I kmnow rigyht, i don't get why people are disagreeing. Keane said Haaland is a great goalscorer just not a good footballer which he isn't.
What's his job?
Roy did say that He's young and will develop.
What I would say, is that Ivan Tony would score as many goals in that City line-up...
Build up play has become more important in the modern game.
Modern teams are more compact vertically. Which means the distance between their strikers and their defenders are closer. They defend with 11 players forming a block.
Therefore, you need 11 creative players to break down that block. That’s why modern defenders and goalkeepers are required to be so much more technical on the ball.
In the past, being a goal hanger isn’t that big of a trade off, because your team could still be able to create through a 4 men defence. But nowadays, you can’t afford to be one man down in the build up process because you are facing 11 defenders.
This is why modern football has become more “TOTAL”. A striker’s job is not just finishing, but also defending and creating. Otherwise your team would be in a numerical disadvantage in the defensive/build up phase.
The same applies to defenders and goalkeepers. Being “TOTAL” not only means you are not in a disadvantage in other phases, it allows more position swapping opportunities to break down those low blocks, hence more tactical flexibility. This is why serving the system has become so much more important in modern football.
Thanks pep 🙏🏻🤣
Yes it has changed and strikers have to be able to do more as you have brilliantly explained.
But I bet if you could offer a prime Van Nistelrooy or Michael Owen to any PL team other than City they would bite your hand off for them despite what they lose out in build up.
In the change of player development into total footballers who can play comfortably in a variety of positions and are technically more comfortable in possession you have less players that hit that absolute top echelon level in specialist positions like CF and CB.
Not saying they don't exist, there is just less of them compared to 20-25 years ago because they now have to devote so much more of their development in all areas rather than focussing their development in one particular discipline.
Peps not angry he's just Catalan. I've lived in Barcelona for 7 years and trust me his approach is pretty normal here but stands out in the UK. His culture is very different.
Haaland is the best finisher I've seen. That said if i got to pick a new striker for my team hed be very very far down the list due to his overall play. Elite teams with plenty of service that don't need their forwards to creative he's excellent for. But his overall play isn't good.
Best finisher u've seen? How long have u watch football? 10 years?
@@okocha7914 2 years actually
Who are you picking over him without naming Kane?
@@GermanChickenwingSon & ruud van nistelrooy
@@GermanChickenwing apart from the obvious mbappe? Martinez, osimhen, guirassy in his current form, Isak. Guys who aren't as reliant on a incredible midfield, since ours is terrible
Goalie's job is to stop shots. But why are all these goalies now expected to do so much more? A defender's job is to play defense, then why are they expected to play the ball and do more? Why is everyone getting so bothered about Haaland, his job is to score yes, but positions evolve and strikers are asked to do more at times.
Because it helps the team more
@GauravYadav-bf7qj dats nonsense..there brought him from dortmund to score..no one complains about the midfielders or defence...but since is haaland...everyone wants to criticise..and a strikers job is to score.really dont see his fault..it's a team..he is a 9.he is meant to get passes..performed excellent last season.everyone has forgot now
@@zumnandajan3788 his main job is to score goals but you should be a bit versatile as well if you are called the best player in the world. Not comparing Alvarez cause haaland is much better but whenever Alvarez plays as a 9 he is consistently switching positions, picking up good positions, link up play is much better, the football is far more fluid and that helps the team as you can see today, Pep would obviously want haaland to do that as well but he knows he can't and that is a negative point
@GauravYadav-bf7qj he is the best striker..not the best player..nobody is complaining..but he is still among the best players because he is the best striker..do you understand me?
By the way..he is still young..so pep will improve him..after some time..city fans will jus dumb him..he needs to come to where he will be appreciated..let him come to barca 😉
Very clever of Pep to leave him on the bench against Villa, completely diffusing the situation.
Martin O'Neill was right in everything he said. Scoring goals regularly is the hardest thing to do and not many can.
Also Keanes son is not about to break his leg to make sure he's a league two player forever!
I didnt see keanos comment but from what i have heard of it and my understanding of it was haaland looked like a league 2 player in that one game not that haaland is a league 2 player full stop. I maybe wrong but thats my interpretation of what he said
Nope
you're not wrong. he complimented him loads in that segment, but also mentioned this one line that media has taken personally and run with as a catchy soundbite.
he meant L2 full stop
I'm a City fan but I have been saying for months that Haaland needs to do better. Yes, his goalscoring numbers are out of this world. However, if he has ambitions to win the Balon D'Or and be considered amongst the world's elite then he has to work on his hold-up play, link-up play and heading.
Haaland is Terrible in a possession based team but Fantastic in a Counter Attacking team
Kane would’ve fit City like a Glove
city were never going to pay £100 million for a 30 year old
@@paulrichards6894 And so they have this problem on their hands to link the system with the 9
He might score so many goals but even as a Chelsea fan I miss watching the fluidity of a Man City with False 9 than what it is now
goldbridge`s take on haaland wouldn`t fit liverpool is an absolute joke. he would fit that side like a glove..and his build up play would be better because he wouldn`t be frustrated on the pitch most of the time due to a `complete` lack of service. he would potentially reach form making every aspect of his play better
“You’ve been a high profile player” pointing to Danny Murphy, thus implying that Martin wasn’t. Martin O Neil was a high profile player, who won a lot more than Murphy.
I agree and disagree. I see Roy's point but if Haaland is scoring insane numbers then it doesn't matter. If City are destroying teams, it doesn't really matter. Look at Hoijland at United, same age and huge potential but can't get the touches or goals. Peps teams have usually utilized a false nine and have picked teams apart. When Haaland was signed for City I was skeptical he was going to thrive in that system. He does when KDB is on the field with him because he plays to Haaland strengths which is turning players and running in behind, not playing like Kane and dropping deep to play another in. I feel with Haaland, City struggle more to unlock a low block team because he just occupies the box and the CBs can just sit on him, unlike if Aguero was there the CBs would be pulled out and stretched. Kinda like when Klopp had Salah/Mane/Brazilian(name escaped me).
why not ask the question if he does it in the big games?
Keane never said Haaland wasn't a great goalscorer, he just said he isn't a great footballer. What's the issue?
He’s the best in the world better then Kane for sure
Keane himself was not a great footballer 😂..Can you imagine him playing in todays game?
City fan here. I absolutely agree with you.
@@GermanChickenwingKeane was definitely a great player.
Basically a league 2 footballer then.
Talksport saying Keanes words were maybe taken put of context and they dont even research the context.
Keane said Halland's finishing is the best in the world in the same breath
Martin: I didn't listen to his comments at all. But I'm not having any of it.
Great analysis there, thanks for the amazing input and professionalism talksport.
Just shows you how bad the media is
Roy's comments on Harland was a remark straight out of the Ferguson play book, a play on mind games, what...!!!.... maybe wind the young striker up a tad, an aim to get him back firing on all cylinders.......just maybe hoping this verbal strategy stops liverpool winning the league.......🤔🤔🤔
Thanks very much Martin, this old players are becoming too hypocritical
Everyone is entitled to their opinion of course, and I normally enjoy Roy's punditry...but on this occasion he has let himself down with his comments re Haaland
The media, and people who fall right into their clickbait BS, have gone mad. Haaland is off the charts and generational.
City-87 games, 81 goals, 15 assists
Dortmund-89 games, 86 goals, 23 assists
Salzburg-27 games, 29 goals, 7 assists
Norway-31 games, 27 goals, 3 assists
Total-234 games, 223 goals, 48 assists
only the best striker in prem history lol these youtube comments pundits are shameless
And? Those teams are the same with or without him
@@GauravYadav-bf7qj Are they? - same players without Haaland did not win the treble
@@jkdure they didn't win it without akanji either. The main difference for man city last season was their defense compared to previous seasons rather than haaland. They barely conceded more than one goal in any of their games after WC. City score same amount with or without him. And haaland did sod all in semi finals and finals. Haaland is lucky that City won treble in his first season and made everyone look like he was the difference maker but in reality City used to be more dominant before him and you can't argue with that
@@GauravYadav-bf7qj bla bla bla...still no treble before
A strikers job is to score goals that's pretty much it . Football ( soccer ) isn't like basketball or American football which are based on stats . However in football they are two positions where can accurately measure how good a player is , these are being a goalkeeper and Striker.if you wanna know how good a good a goalkeeper is look at his stats and this matters more for strikers .
Klose overall was a bang average striker when you consider his club record as well . Haaland is a good striker . Also people forget they are different types of strikers . Haaland is probably closer to Robert Lewandowski and maybe Harry Kane . When he peaks he won't be the Brazilian Ronaldo nor Henry in terms of playing style . Neither will be like Suarez or Benzema .
Haaland is still very very young and his football is still evolving, without injuries he will be similar to Kane and Lewandowski.
I find it funny that a player like Haaland can't be critiqued, Haaland is the best striker in the world, but as a footballer, he lacks technical ability, and that is a fair criticism, Zlatan 6 ft 5 and had great technical ability so it's not farfetched to have a striker of Haaland stature be a bit more well rounded
Ur knowledge of football must be very shallow …. Ur an Arsenal fan I don’t blame u … considering some of the strikers you’ve had in the last 15 years…😂 and u still decided to make dis comment. Strikers are judged on the numbers they put up not how good they look on the ball …. Haaland has mastered attacking space and scoring goals … Man City recognises dat … wat is technically ability by ur definition? Haaland sometimes scores some of the most ridiculous goals u will see with technique of the highest order…..
@@jeff4able ah the classic questioning of one's football knowledge 🤣🤣🤣, classic response that doesn't address the actual statement made, so let me put it in plain English so you can follow, first off no one said Haaland wasn't a great striker but it's clear he is still not the finished product, this is not the first time he has faced such feedback and at one point he even asked Thierry Henry on what he needs to improve upon and Henry alluded to this, if the player himself is asking for constructive criticism then it shows he still feels he needs to improve and this is one of the key areas but fans like you who lack any sort of emotional intelligence will only read and hear what you want while ignoring the bigger picture but stay dull and wear a helmet
Well said Martin 👏
It's the usual nonsense everybody is entitled to their opinion especially Roy Keane he was one of the best defensive midfielders in the world.
Christ let the man finish his thought
Harry Kane is on another level to Haaland. Best in the world😂🤣 ridiculous
At 23, Harry Kane was literally on loan in the lower leagues.
@@rakimrobinsonMCFC don't care. currently Kane is the best striker in the world and it isn't close
@@jamesrocco5272 Tell that to Bayern. We did bid over 100mil for him. Haaland was half that and won us everything. We have no complaints. We will be there.
Haaland is a luxury player. If he doesn’t score City are playing with 10 men. But they are good enough too. He’s almost the complete opposite of Firmino.
54 goals in 59 games not a bad luxury
Haalands strenghs have been weighed, measured and neutralised. His all round play isnt PL standard and without the goals he provides little. Without service on a plate the goals dry up and analysis shifts to his build up play which weve just discussed... Big Donkey...... Nunez will be the better striker very soon
You watch Haaland's performance on Sunday and you immediately understand why Messi won the Balon do'r despite him scoring over 50 Goals and winning some trophies,, he just ain't nowhere near Messi when it comes to footballing ability and if Mbappe joins Real Madrid there will be no close competition between them cause Mbappe is just too good with his feet and at Real Madrid he'll easily match Haaland's numbers.
Maybe he IS a league 2 player , but if he played in a league 2 team that created a lot of chances every match bro would be scoring like 217 every season 🤦♂️😂😂😂✌️🏆
I agree with Roy Keane,, Haaland looks very ordinary as a footballer, and as he gets older and lose a bit of pace ,,,
“A defender is bought to defend”?
So as long as he is great at defending, he can keep passing the ball to the opponent, and avoiding the ball when his teammates are passing to him?
How many defenders actually do pass to their opponents beyond the odd occasion as opposed to the number of times midfielders do it?!
thats such a stupid comment and if thats all u know about football
When labelled as the worlds best people envisage a player that can create something out of nothing, a R9 ,messi ,suarez henry ,haaland wlll never be in that category
People are ignorant
Haaland doesn’t wait up front for an easy long ball counter. He works in congestion because his team are always in possession. And still he’s scored more than anyone
His team are always in possession but he has so few touches.
@@thierryhenry674 ??
@@effkay3691
Sorry for the typo.
@@thierryhenry674 I know what you’re saying but he does get the goals. For sure, sometimes he can look awful but he does play in the box.
People having opinions on other people’s opinions. TalkSPORT is so in the gutter they have to generate views from views of other bigger media outlets.
Keane doesn't like Haaland senior. No surprise he is having a pop at Erling when he can. He doesnt like the family and they no doubt don't like him
🚨 Haaland is not interested in build up play, or lookin pretty & having 40 touches like Jesus for Arsenal who don't win anything & poor Infront of goal, that's why Arsenal are looking for a Striker this summer to score the necessary goals away from home when the team is struggling, you need that clinical striker to bail you out in games when the rest of the Attack is having a poor game Infront of goal
Lol a retired player that couldnt stay long managing a league one team for more than 3 years has a lot of nerve saying the best goalscorer in the premierleague history dont know how to play the game
Roy keane is like tyson fury he just drops little bombs 💣 sits bak and is probably laughing at every tom dik and more diks butting in and giving there opinion 😂😂😂🎉🎉 🎣 .
He's got history with the HAALAND family, he went out to destroy Alfie HAALAND and was successful, so he has a axe to grind
best striker my ass....lewa or kane would get more goals in this team + 10x more assists. Even uncle Ronie would pocket this guy .
He'll score 5 against us on Saturday 🤣
It could be debatable when it comes out of the mouth of anyone, when it comes out of Roy Keane’s mouth dismiss it right away because it’s not correct.
Roy keane is the player that almost stripped the fun out of football.
He isn’t a football player , he’s a butcher.
Remember he butchered Haaland’s father and he’s still not satisfied , he wants more revenge.
@@antonellaluque4532 I’ll call the police if you say that again. 🚖🚖🚖
Haaland hasn't been the same since his grandma died. Definitely lost his mojo. But his figures speak for themselves, so it's only a matter of time before his mojo returns. Yeaaaah, baby!
English media is overhyping Haaland as the "wOrLd's bEsT" becuz Mbappe is heading to LaLiga so they're convincing and Deluding themselves well enough to overhype their league as well
Propaganda as always.. Haaland as world's best?? Grammy award for this joke 😂
Sky sports is english media, the source of the “haaland is league two level”. Not too bright are ya
Who cares what Roy Keane says ,1 human being amongst billions
Martin absolutely spot on. Sam Matterface is an absolute mug.
I’d rather Kane over haaland discussion over
Honestly as a Spaniard, it just looks normal to me jaja
115 charges
❤ O'Neill
Haaland is a one trick pony and Arsenal have sussed him out. Others will do the same.
arsenal took the team bus
Roy Keane still has in for haarland father
Why did Danny not watch the clip, come on, stop being lazy lad
Is simon away sunning himself
Yes
Harland is just a Bulgarian Andy Carrel. Olly Watkins literally better. Up the Villa 🔴🔵🔴🔵
In the end, Haaland's general play isn't that good, but he's paid to score goals, and right now, as much as it pains me to say it, there is no-one better anywhere. He's an ugly git as well.
How many times are people gonna miss roy keanes point? 😂
this is meaningless chatter with a slow news day and grealish was, is, and will always be over-rated...
He's not the best in the world.. he's just playing in the best team ... Roy is correct... he's football skills are rubbish
Haaland is not even in the top 5
What a JOKE ! 😂
Haaland is just a goal hanger. He is a massive liability in the build up.
So his team will have less and lower quality of possession, ball progression and chance creation, which will eventually reduce the total number of goals his team can score.
Three times against Arsenal this season. Haaland is invisible, and registered an extremely low xG.
If ManCity had played a tekky/creative false 9 instead, Arsenal would not be able to defend. Because ManCity’s tiki taka play would be so much more dangerous, it’s like they have 16 players on the pitch.
Worlds best tap in merchant 100%
Same joker kenae who was licking Cristiano ronaldo s boots ..last 2 years. who is the worse player at link up who destroyed united 😂whereas halland won a treble 😂😂
I think Keane is right but i also think you're right in what you say about CR7
*Haaland
Worlds best😂😂😂😂
Keane isnt wrong.
Yes he is
54 goals in 59 games says he is
what keane said is correct ..world class striker but hes general play is so poor
Look at these muppets..When Fergi was abusing refs and officials, they were hailing him for it
British BIAS as always
Worst he was even breaking FFP while being the only financial powerhouse in Prem at that time yet the ignore that as if it never happened and criticize Pep
Without Pep, prem would be still be 3rd best league
Martin O'Neill is just Salty He didn't get offered the Manchester United job back in the day. And so hence forth He hates everything associated to Manchester United. 😂😭
I think you're deluded
