A source has informed journalist Jack Gaughan that Erling Haaland did not receive any votes for the FWA Footballer Of the Year award. Despite being the Premier League’s top goalscorer with 25 goals, Haaland was not nominated for the award, while players like Phil Foden and Rodri were included in the list of nominees. This lack of recognition for Haaland may mirror what Mohamed Salah experienced in his second season at Liverpool, after setting high standards in his debut season.
The source suggested that Roy Keane’s criticism of Haaland as a limited player outside of scoring goals may have influenced why he did not receive any votes for the Player of the Year award. Despite Haaland’s prolific goal-scoring record, it seems that his all-round game and display in matches like Manchester City’s win against Arsenal are not being fully appreciated. It may take years after Haaland leaves Manchester City for the Premier League fans to fully understand and appreciate the impact he had during his time in the league.
While Haaland’s goal-scoring abilities have become normalized, it is suggested that some may be overlooking his brilliance due to his consistent performance. The expectation for Haaland to continue scoring goals at a high rate may overshadow his overall contribution to games. It is implied that unless Haaland delivers exceptional displays like his performance against Arsenal, where he showcased his all-round skills, he may not receive the recognition he deserves for his contributions to Manchester City and the Premier League.
