His link up play was great.A bit quiet but I thought his linkup play today was even better than Alvarez's. He's ridiculously strong on the ball.
Agree. The SU defenders were focussed on Haaland. Alvarez too creates space for that goal. Erling went left and Alvarez right which enabled Mahrez to stroll through.The other side to big erl today. When sides spend so much attention on keeping him nullified, the space opens up for others. His run and the defenders desperation to keep tabs on him led to mahrez being able to waltz through for the second. Hopefully a game without scoring makes him hungry to absolutely maul holding on Wednesday and bag himself a record breaking hattrick.
