All Premier League fans must have asked themselves this question: what did the players not selected or not qualified for the World Cup do between November 13 and December 26, while the English championship was on hiatus?
The obvious answer is: they must have found the time very long. This is finally confirmed by Erling Haaland in an advertisement.
“I worked hard while the guys were away. Sometimes it’s a bit boring. But time passes. I miss jokes, I’m not going to lie. And celebrating goals on your own… it’s not the same thing.” Here is the message from the Premier League’s top scorer. On the tone of the joke… But we still felt a part of truth in his speech.
Not sure that his teammate Kevin De Bruyne, mentioned in the ad, would not have preferred to take his place, rather than spending the month he spent in Qatar, with his Belgian selection.
