Ilkay Gundogan hits back at Jamie Carragher comments on Erling Haaland and Man City

Ilkay Gundogan has defended Erling Haaland and insisted that he is a good fit for Manchester City after Jamie Carragher suggested that the Norwegian forward may have "picked the wrong club" last week.

Haaland has plundered 25 goals in 20 Premier League matches since joining the champions - meaning he has already eclipsed the tally of last year's joint Golden Boot winners Mohamed Salah and Son Heung-min.

But although Haaland has been impressive in front of goal, Manchester City have looked far from their fluent best with the former Borussia Dortmund star leading the line. Last weekend's defeat against Tottenham means City have already lost four games this term - one more than they lost in the entire 2021/22 campaign.
