Former Chelsea striker Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has suggested that Manchester City ace Erling Haaland needs to play with his back to goal more often if he wishes to improve.
The Norwegian frontman has made a scintillating start to life with the Blues following his summer switch from Borussia Dortmund, registering 27 goals and three assists in 22 appearances. The 22-year-old, who has netted 21 times in the Premier League, has also bagged three hat-tricks already his term.
While City secured an important 1-0 victory over Chelsea on Thursday night, Haaland struggled to impact the game and recorded just 31 touches in the match. It was just the fourth top-flight game that the striker has failed to score in so far this season.
