Former Manchester United player and Sky Sports pundit Roy Keane criticized Manchester City’s Erling Haaland, calling him a ‘spoilt brat’ for his reaction to being substituted after scoring a hat-trick against Wolves. Keane was unimpressed with Haaland’s behavior and suggested that his attitude was not acceptable despite his goal-scoring abilities.

Haaland showed his frustration at being substituted by manager Pep Guardiola during the game, and his reaction did not sit well with Keane. The striker’s response to a question about Keane, where he admitted not caring about the former player, added fuel to the fire. Keane has been vocal about his opinions on Haaland’s footballing abilities, despite the striker’s impressive goal-scoring records.

The striker’s on-the-ball abilities have been questioned by Keane, but his goal-scoring prowess remains unquestionable, making him a key player for his team.
