Erling Haaland decisively won his battle against Gabriel on Sunday and it was a key part in Manchester City's win over Arsenal.

esteemedkompany.com/2026/04/20/a...

Great call. I'm going to write about his battle with Gabriel tomorrow but I think Haaland is so far in Gabriel's head now it isn't funny.

I woke my wife up when that happened so I'm hearing you.

And no it's not. Donnarumma doesn't 'just save penalties'. He makes big saves in big moments. His career tells you that, no matter how much you ignore that fact.

That isn't a knock on Trafford in any way, shape, or form. If you checked all of my writing I'm a huge fan of Trafford.

Are you kidding me? Alvarez wanted the opportunity to be the number one striker elsewhere. He deserved that. We have Erling Haaland for godsake and don't tell me Alvarez is better than Haaland.

If Trafford has half the career that Donnarumma has he will he an exceptional keeper.

Look, I'd rather enjoy a huge win than discuss a topic we won't agree on

You're neglecting how crucial Donnarumma was to PSG making that final, and his saves against Liverpool, Brentford and in other matches this season for us.

Enjoy our win, it's not a topic I feel like debating on anymore 👍

Ironically, he made a similar mistake today to the one that Trafford made against Spurs in our first home game this season. That happens, it's how players respond to those moments that defines them, not the error itself.

He is a top keeper. It's utterly ridiculous to suggest he isn't. His resume speaks for itself, and he was PSG's keeper last season in a team he was supposedly not suited for. They don't win the CL last season without him, simple as that.

I'm not buying that. Yes, he made an error. But he made a huge save when needed and it was his throw in that set up Haaland's goal. So I can't agree with that.

He stood up after his mistake when many other keepers would've folded. He deserves credit for that as much as he deserves criticism.
