Stopping Erling Haaland is the ultimate challenge but Everton pair can get under his skin

Stopping Erling Haaland might sound like an impossible task but Everton’s centre-backs should relish the challenge and with Yerry Mina now back in the team alongside James Tarkowski, Sean Dyche has the ideal pair to try and get under the prolific Manchester City striker’s skin.

Yerry is the master at it, he loves it. He seems to be a very likeable character around Finch Farm and all the other players get on with him as he’s something of a joker who likes to play football with a smile on his face but he also likes to wind up the opposition.

Playing against someone who has been on form all season, scoring goals for fun is the ultimate test. But we know Haaland can have quiet games, sometimes he hardly touches the ball and can get frustrated when he has one or two markers on him.
