Bernardo Silva offers different view to Pep Guardiola over Erling Haaland's role in Man City team

After Erling Haaland scored twice at Leeds, Pep Guardiola said the Manchester City striker can get even better, referring to his all-round play in the Blues' build-up.

That was a belief he repeated on Friday, which serves an ominous warning to Premier League and European rivals that City's 26-goal striker can be even more influential.

Haaland himself said at Leeds that he was 'p*****' at his performance for missing three other chances, showing where he views his immediate improvement. However, teammate Bernardo Silva has given an alternative view, saying that City's players are happy to have a player like Haaland who offers so much even without getting involved too much in City's build-up.
