Jamie Carragher explains difference Erling Haaland will make to Man City in blunt verdict

Jamie Carragher does not think Erling Haaland will make a 'huge difference' to the Premier League title race because of the quality Manchester City already have at their disposal.

City confirmed the arrival of the 22-year-old forward from Borussia Dortmund in a deal worth around £51million earlier in the transfer window. Haaland scored on his unofficial debut against Bayern Munich on Sunday, tapping home Jack Grealish's cutback from close-range.

It was an impressive first appearance for Haaland, who made some intelligent runs in behind and always looked a threat when City attacked. He started in a front three alongside Grealish and Riyad Mahrez, with Kevin de Bruyne and Bernardo Silva in behind. When delivering his verdict on Haaland's move to City, Carragher does not believe he is a 'game changer' but has backed them to win the Champions League.
