Harry Redknapp snubs Erling Haaland as he names ‘best striker in the Premier League’ Former Premier League manager Harry Redknapp reckons that Alexander Isak is a better striker than Erling Haaland.
By contrast, Isak is in a rich vein of goalscoring form, with six goals in his last eight league games, including in last weekend’s 4-0 win over Leicester City.
‘Alexander Isak a such a top, top striker,’ the 77-year-old told BetVictor as he reviewed last weekend’s Premier League action.
‘I’m a big fan of this lad,’ Merson told Sky Sports ‘I’m surprised Arsenal didn’t try and break the bank for him over the summer, I think he was the missing link for Arsenal.
Arsenal have been mooted as a club that could make a move for the 25-year-old, with former Gunners midfielder Paul Merson surprised that the club didn’t try to sign him in the summer.
