Grealish admits Haaland has improved Man City

Jack Grealish admits Manchester City have improved with the addition of Erling Haaland.

After victory at Wolves, the midfielder has revealed what it's like to play with Haaland.

“It changes all of our games compared to last season where we played with a false nine," Grealish said. "This year, in my opinion, we have got the best striker in the world playing up front who is just obsessed with scoring goals and being in the box, which is a brilliant trait for a striker.

"I think it is down to us to put the balls in the box. I was just having a word with him then saying that 'I didn't even know you could score from outside the box!' which he did today [Saturday].

"He is honestly a brilliant person to be around. I cannot speak highly enough of him, he is so humble for what he has achieved already in his career. It helps that he can constantly put the ball in the back of the net as well."
