The verbal battle between Manchester United legend Roy Keane and Erling Haaland is far from over.

Roy Keane, the former Manchester United captain, has slammed Erling Haaland for throwing a tantrum when Pep Guardiola substituted him during their 5-1 thrashing of Wolves on Saturday.

Haaland had just bagged four goals, solidifying his lead in the Premier League Golden Boot race, but when Guardiola pulled him off in the 82nd minute, Haaland was upset, stomping over to the bench fuming.

Roy Keane vs Haaland war continues

Man United legend Roy Keane called him out after the game.

Keane, speaking on Sky Sports’ Super Sunday, said: “We saw Haaland yesterday being brought off, behaving like a spoilt brat.

“When they win the game and he scores goals, it’s almost forgotten about.”

The situation between Keane and Haaland seems to be far from friendly after the ex-United man said Haaland's general play was at the level of a League Two player after last month's 0-0 draw against Arsenal.

Haaland fired back over the weekend by saying "i don't care about that man."

For Haaland and City, the most important thing is a Premier League title win, and the Cityzens are 3 wins away.
