How didErling Haaland reportedly react to Arsenal’stie with Southampton?

That’s a huge boost for Manchester City‘s championship hopes. Now they are just five points behind first place and have played twogames less than the leaders.

The rest of their schedule is winnable, particularly with Erling Haaland at the helm as he is the Citizens’ top goalscorer with 32league goals so far. Speaking of the Norwegian star, itseemed like he was happy with Arsenal’s second consecutive loss.

The 22-year-old took to Twitter shortly after the final whistle at the Emirates to share a series of photographs from training with the caption: “Mood. Still”. It has ledsome to speculate that the tweet had anything to do with Arsenal’s match.
