Former Liverpool defender, Jamie Carragher, has said Erling Haaland is the “greatest goalscorer to ever play in English football”.
Haaland found the back of the net for a ninth match in a row, as City edged a 1-0 win over Brentford on Sunday.
The Norway striker muscled his way through the Brentford’s defence to score his 18th goal for country and club this season.
Carragher went ahead to list some of the greats he believes Haaland is better than.
“I think we’re watching the greatest goalscorer to ever play in English football,” Carragher said on Super Sunday: Extra Time:
“I honestly can’t remember Jimmy Greaves, Dixie Dean and all those players from years ago.
“But I think of Gary Lineker, Alan Shearer, Harry Kane and Ian Rush for my club Liverpool.”
