Anticipation for the Liverpool vs Man City premier league fixture intensified with Erling Haaland’s latest interview as the City forward responded to a comment made by the Reds captain Trent Alexander-Arnold about Liverpool’s trophy meaning more to the team and the fans than that of Man City.
Haaland in an interview with Sky Sport stated, ‘If he wants to say that, OK. I’ve been here one year and I’ve won the Treble and it was quite a nice feeling. I don’t think he knows exactly this feeling. They can talk as much as they want. He can talk as much as he wants. I don’t know why he does that but I don’t mind.’
Alexander-Arnold suggested earlier this week that achieving success under Jurgen Klopp holds more significance, implying that City’s 14 major trophies under Pep Guardiola have been primarily bought rather than earned.
As the two rivals prepare to face off at Anfield on Sunday, March 10, 2024, with only a single point separating them in the title race, tensions are high. This could potentially mark one of the final encounters between Klopp and Guardiola before Klopp’s anticipated departure in the summer.
Alexander-Arnold’s comments have reignited the rivalry between the two clubs, adding fuel to an already heated situation. City’s continued presence in all three major competitions, following their progression into the Champions League quarter-finals on Wednesday night, contrasts with Liverpool’s pursuit of four trophies, having already secured the Carabao Cup this season.
