In the third round of the UEFA Champions League, Manchester City defeated Villarreal at home and Haaland scored a goal.

Harland is unstoppable, Guardiola reserved a floating line

After sinking the yellow submarine, Harland has scored in 12 consecutive games. In the process of sweeping all opponents on all fronts, Haaland scored 22 goals, averaging close to 2 goals per game. In the past two transfer windows, Manchester City spent 400 million euros to introduce 11 players. Guardiola made many important decisions. One of them did not seem to be "eye-catching", but it was of far-reaching significance, and that was to keep Savinho, who was very close to joining Tottenham.

Guardiola made a choice, Harland was blessed

In this campaign, Savinho sent 1 assist and 4 threatening balls on the wing, and also completed 5 dribbles and 6 successful duels, and was awarded the best player on the spot. For a team with an efficient center, wingers who can send passes from the wing are of great significance. Savinho is such a player, and Haaland cannot lack such an attacker.

As De Bruyne and Gundogan gradually faded out, Guardiola had hoped to replicate the championship team from the Triple Crown period, but he kept Savinho at a critical moment. This was tantamount to preparing Plan B, and Haaland became the biggest beneficiary of this decision.
