Manchester City Struggles Amid Haaland's Form Dip

Erling Haaland's performance has declined significantly since his 'stay humble' comments to Arsenal, scoring only three goals in 13 league matches, while Manchester City has dropped to seventh in the Premier League. Following a recent 1-1 draw against Everton, where Haaland missed a penalty, concerns are growing about City's attacking depth, prompting potential transfer interest in strikers like Randal Kolo Muani from PSG. Haaland's struggles mirror a wider issue within the City squad as they navigate a competitive season, showcasing vulnerabilities that were previously uncharacteristic for the team. Meanwhile, an interesting backstory has emerged revealing that Haaland could have signed for Everton for just £2 million, but the deal was blocked by then-owner Farhad Moshiri. Everton's missed opportunity contrasts sharply with Haaland's rise to fame at City, where he became one of the world's top strikers. As City prepares for the January transfer window, addressing the lack of support for Haaland will be crucial to improving their fortunes.
