Haaland Hoping for Ballon d’Or After Taking City Champions League Glory
Sportsfila Congratulates Manchester city and anybody who’s been supporting Mancity for their victory and the massive 4-0 semi-final win against Real Madrid. My team Man Utd have shown they are not good enough yet, and I can’t hate City for their deserving success. Let them enjoy their first champions league title with the treble already in the basket.
Erling Haaland Hoping for Ballon d’Or After Taking City Champions League Glory. Inter Milan is a walk-over for PEP GUARDIOLA.
Lionel Messi’s perceived lead in the race for the 2023 Ballon d’Or award has been significantly narrowed
Erling Haaland is one win away from winning the Champions League and possibly changing the narrative
Congrats: Guardiola 100% Going to Win Champions League with Haaland
Messi’s FIFA World Cup win in December last year gave him a headstart as he seeks a record eighth title
This football is history. Pep is making a legend of himself and Foden is benefitting alot. Pep shielding him from that brainless england hype and what a player.
Vinicius Jr vs Mbappe vs Haaland who is better?
Messi’s early elimination from the Champions League notwithstanding, the Argentine delivered for his country in Qatar. He played a role in almost every game, bar their opening match against Saudi Arabia.
Contratulations to the GOAT: Messi Wins Qatar World Cup for Argentina
Apart from the World Cup, the 35-year-old has the Ligue 1 trophy in waiting, as well as the French Cup. If you combine his assists and goals, he almost matches Haaland’s astronomical numbers.
A masterclass display from Manchester City, showing that they are a well balanced and formidable team not reliant on individual performances
Congrats: Guardiola 100% Going to Win Champions League with Haaland
Thibaut Courtis making sure that Haaland does not come close to that 17goals in a single UCL season record was amazing to watch… it’s like Halaand was the only player he knew how to stop. Congrats to City.
BERNARDO SILVA believes that Erling Haaland won’t claim the Ballon d’Or over Lionel Messi if Manchester City didn’t win the Champions League.
The prestigious award is handed out at the end of the calendar year to the world’s finest footballer – and there are no shortage of candidates so far.
Man city on a historic run, just 3 matches from a treble. Financial backing or not, Pep is one of the greatest if not the greatest of all time tactician we have been blessed to watch his exciting brand of football.
Respect from a Man Utd fan.
Vinicius Jr to Win a Ballon d’Or before Haaland and Mbappe
This Manchester City team reminds me of the Barca team of 2009 under PEP Guardiola. Pep is a genius. It isn’t just the fact that he defeated Madrid… It is the sheer dominance from start to finish that is intriguing… Beautiful piece from City. Pep deserves his flowers. No one should ever disrespect him again…
All Barca fans love PEP. We only hope he comes back to Barca before his final retirement from the round leather game.
This is what we called team spirit unlike my team Man United they will throw in the towel easily, we must be in our best form to play these guys on FA cup final. Congrats to City and the fans🙌
Many would back Haaland to follow up his Football Writers’ Association’s Footballer of the Year award with the Ballon d’Or after his stunning debut season in England.
The Norwegian forward has broken the Premier League record for most goals in a single season and still has three games add more strikes to his tally.
Real Madrid is the most dangerous club in the world
But over in France Messi has recaptured his best form at PSG – even as transfer speculation continues to distract from his exploits.
Silva has a theory about what it would take for his 22-year-old teammate to stop Messi winning yet another individual honour.
arim Benzema, Marcus Rashford, and Erling Haaland were backed as potential stars who could wrestle the title from Messi’s grasp.
Benz was in for his ability to inspire Real Madrid to a 15th Champions League title – a dream that has now ended with a sting after a 4-0 shellacking in Manchester on May 17.
There is NO REASON for Gareth Southgate to be linked with the Manchester United job
Gareth Southgate is the only person in the Universe who can turn Manchester United into Middlesbrough within no time
The English media is trying all their best to push Southgate to united, but he is championship level manager at best
The England national team is waay better than this Manu squad, and he has had 0 success ( reaching semis ain’t success). So what exactly are people expecting if he becomes Manu boss
Absolutely no way! Why would Man U hire Southgate? That would be the worse decision in the history of the game.
ETH outwitted Klopp last weekend in one of the best and most dramatic FA cup clashes in years and I’m sorry but Southgate would not have won that game and ETH has had to deal with Ronaldo, Sancho, Greenwood and so on, he deserves more time

I have been saying this for weeks now. If United were under any other manager especially Southgate, they would be fighting for relegation right now. The problem at United is not Ten Hag but the players.
People keep saying that Ten Hag’s style of football at United is not attractive and no identity but there is so much that a manager can do if the players themselves are not good enough or not putting enough effort. Ten Hag’s Ajax were playing attractive football and he managed to get them to the SF of the CL.
Without him, look at Ajax now. And the media keep pushing their agenda to get Ten Hag sack and replace him with a much worse manager like Southgate. If Ten Hag is managing England right now, with the players they have, we won’t see such a passive football like we saw yesterday vs Brazil. Ask Liverpool fans, would they replace Klopp with Southgate? I rest my case.
- Ten Hag Says Man United Are on Track
- Liverpool blame themselves for FA Cup loss to Man United
- Man United searching for Erik ten Hag replacement
Liverpool only have themselves to blame for loss to Manchester United. Had to find a way to squeeze in the random Bruno slag off in between. Dude was dead on his feet at full time, and had to slot in to center back for the last 30 minutes.
SportsFila reflect on Manchester United’s 4-3 win over Liverpool in the FA Cup Quarterfinals and look ahead to the semifinals where Erik ten Hag’s side will take on Coventry.
How come everybody seems to have forgotten that 2 of LFC’s goals were pure luck?
More shots, same shots on goal, higher goal expectancy. What is this narrative that Liverpool should have put this game away, if anything we should’ve put this game away! They had a good 20, 25 minute stint where they kept the ball in the second half, but did nothing with it, we deservedly won this game.

For Liverpool fans: don’t say that we lost to Manchester United because Jota Trent Alisson and jones didn’t play. We have to stop doing that every time a team loses a big game it’s very stupid because had you won, you wouldn’t be saying that. Don’t forget that when y’all drew 0-0 to them at home Trent Alisson and Jones started. Keep in mind how well they’ve been playing despite having lots of injuries they almost beat Manchester City’s full strength squad last week.
Also, you lose to Manchester United, 2 fringe players for them decided the game for them, Liverpool didn’t play well and a loss is a loss you have to accept it otherwise you’re a sole loser and are unwilling to take it.
It’s interesting how nothing much is said about the mistakes made by Liverpool, but all criticism is piled on Bruno; how supposedly poor he was.
Ten Hag claims United is moving in the right direction 👀 WHAT DIRECTION IS THAT?!
Every time he speaks after a dismal performance after the match I always sit there saying to myself “What on Earth are you talking about”.
The media trying so hard to get ETH sacked…..when liverpool had bad injuries with VVD out, y’all didnt have the same energy
Most fans want ETH out because of his poor tactics and substitutions. I also felt he should be braver to drop non-performing players irrespective of names, and even play academy players if he has to.
Now I’m ETH in because I realise from Rooney’s and Ole’s recent interviews that the mentality of these players are incredibly low and it’s no longer just speculation that the players can’t cope on this stage.
I can understand ETH saying positive things and coming off as “crazy” but if you have players who are weak minded and aren’t willing to fight, you can’t be tough cos they’ll cave and where does that leave you for the rest of the season?! Jason Sancho case in point. I rather come across as insane to the media but hope that I’m lifting the team enough to get a string of performances to save my job and give the fans at least something to cheer about until I can have a summer clear out.
Keane is a freaking legend but that approach with these weak players will kill them and ETH would lose the dressing room.
This man keeps dropping off bombs on and off the field..A gift that keeps on giving..Most delulu man on this green earth
What a GIFT! Hand him a 15 years contract and 5 years add ons
The problem for Utd in recruiting an elite manager in the Summer is that Liverpool, Bayern and Barca will also be looking for new managers.
From the moment I heard “A new era begins. .” from ETH. I knew it was the joke of the century. He has the guts to say it while Klopp/Guardiola are competing against each other by 1 point in the Primer league he acted like he can compete with them ro
