Erling Haaland is playing great this season as well, he has fit in well in Pep Guardiola’s team, and Dwight Yorke has expressed an interesting opinion about him.
The legendary goal scorer of Manchester United believes that the Norwegian could not be in the starting 11 of the 1999 team.
“Even if we see how great Haaland is, we had a special way of playing forward. It’s not just about who will score, but how to win the game and win the triple crown. There is no way that Haaland would be in our team, if you look at the way we played. Why would anyone break up the tandem of Andy Cole and me?” asked York.
The 1999 Champions League winner with the Red Devils has revealed that there could be room for another City player, Kevin De Bruyne, in that squad.
“If there is someone who could have a real chance to be in the starting 11 of our team, then it is Kevin De Bruyne. However, I can’t say that we lacked the quality that De Bruyne has, because we had Scholes in the middle,” said Yorke.
In that season in which United conquered Europe, the footballer from Trinidad and Tobago and Andy Cole formed a fantastic tandem when they scored 53 goals together in all competitions.
