Erling Haaland reveals what annoys him the MOST about modern football

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has revealed what annoys him the most about modern football in a recent podcast.

In an interview with Manchester City's official podcast, the star player called for some fundamental changes to the game, including some rules which he thinks 'don't matter'.

Haaland urged footballing authorities to implement goal-line technology across the entire pitch, including throw-ins.

The Norweigan footballer cited concerns about underhand tactics and the need for fair play in modern football.

Haaland emphasised the importance of introducing goal-line technology universally to ensure accurate decisions on whether the ball is in or out of play.

He also highlighted his frustration with the current rules governing throw-ins, calling for clearer guidelines to prevent teams from gaining unfair advantages.

'If you throw this way or that way, it doesn't matter. Just make sure you have two hands on the ball. I don't even know the rules, and if I'm going to make a throw, I'll probably do it wrong.' Haaland added.

'But it doesn't matter if you throw the ball straight down, straight up or whatever. I would change that.'

He continued, mentioning time-wasting: 'And you can't steal too many meters, there should be a limit to how far you can go and a limit to how long you can take. I think it will be like that in the future.'

The footballing world has already witnessed the introduction of goal-line technology and the video assistant referee (VAR) in recent years, aimed at reducing officiating errors.

VAR has faced a plethora of backlash this season with a number of teams protesting the lack of on-field decisions.
