Neville says that the star of Man City “does not get sufficiently” and could do “more”

Gary Neville suggested that a Manchester City star “does not get enough” and “could do much more” after the old Sky Sports Pundit club underwent a 3-0 defeat in the Manchester derby.

Man City back on the right track after Triumph derby

Man City endured a difficult start for the Premier League season, losing two of his first three games, but Pep Guardiola hopes that the 3-0 victory against the Amers Rivals of Manchester United could be an early turning point.

Phil Foden opened the scoring for the hosts just before the 20-minute brand, with a Haaland brace in the second half ending the three points for the side of Guardiola, who has always watched control of the game.

Guardiola was lyrical on the Norwegian striker after the match, saying: “Erling has been incredible from the start, but this season is better than ever. I would say better than the triple year. He is dynamic and I do not judge him for authorization, we want him to score goals and to help us.”

While Neville was also impressed by Haaland’s performance, Manchester United’s legend asked why the attacker is not able to make similar display more regularly, saying on his podcast: “Obviously, he sometimes does not get enough in the game.

“It scores so many goals, but then I always think you could do much more, you could hold it, you could defenders, you can chase things, you can defend it in your own box, you can win headers, you can do everything, because you are so good-you are so good player, and today was this performance.”

Haaland started flying for the campaign

The 25-year-old was called on his general game in the past, the former man of the man United, Roy Keane, comparing the central center to a Ligue two player after the Blues 0-0 draw against Arsenal during the 2023-24 season.

However, one thing that cannot be questioned is the score capacity of Man City Star, after winning the Premier League Golden Boot Award during its first two campaigns at the Etihad stadium, while retaining a fantastic record in front of the goal last season.

As Neville pointed out, the Norwegian international also showed signs that his full game has also improved against United, making six clearances, creating a great chance and completing two dribbles throughout the match.

Although Man City has undergone a difficult start to the season, Haaland at their disposal should mean that they always have a chance to compete with major honors, and Guardiola hopes that the center-center will be able to continue its fantastic shape.
