Portuguese international star Bernardo Silva has expressed his great admiration for fellow Norwegian striker Erling Holland at Manchester City, praising the pace of integration and adaptation with his teammates and the fearsome “Premier League” atmosphere.
In an interview with the “Daily Mirror” newspaper, Silva insisted that the Norwegian “golden boy” is a “perfect face” to receive the Golden Ball award, as he is a great player and an incomparable goalscorer. A good colleague who cares about the team’s interest first, and is comfortable coping on and off the field.
Silva said: I believe with all my heart that Holland will win the “Ballon d’Or” this year because winning it means that we as a team win the English Premier League and the Champions League.
Silva continued his admiration for Haaland, who compared him to his teammate in the Portuguese national team, Cristiano Ronaldo, adding: Erling and Cristiano are two different personalities, for me both are completely different colleagues, but when they are on the field and close to the goal, they are each in the right place. You see there, and they have the ability to score from all angles and at different positions.
He commented: Yes, they are very similar in that, and they have a “huge hunger” to score goals, they are “two sides of the same coin”, whose slogan is “shaking the nets of rivals”.
Notably, Ronaldo has scored 61 goals in various competitions with Spanish side Real Madrid in the 2014-2015 season with no less than 10 more matches to play. Until the end of the season and until the end of it, he can approach or equal this record for Ronaldo, maybe even break it.
Erling Holland, born on July 21, 2000, continues to shine with the “blue moon” and in his first season in England he proved that he is an exceptional and unique player of his kind, as he declared himself early on, “deadly” to conquer the English Premier League and the whole of Europe “descendants of the Vikings”. “Weapons from the country” are coming.
And with his goal against Fulham in Round 34 of the English Premier League, Holland will equal Andy Cole and Alan Shearer as the top goalscorer in league history in a single season, each with 34 goals, if he continues. At the level and beating the same rhythm, he gets a golden opportunity to be alone.
