Fantasy football managers all say same thing as Erling Haaland spotted back at Man City training with Jack Grealish
FANTASY FOOTBALL managers have all been left giddy with excitement after pictures emerged of a certain striker making his return.
Many managers have been practically guaranteed a goal a week whenever Erling Haaland played.
Indeed, the Norwegian has scored a whopping 17 goals in just 11 Premier League games, also adding three assists to that total.
And his exploits have seen him accrue a whopping 117 points in FPL - the highest of any player by a 34 points margin.
However, the more than 80 per cent of managers who have him in their team were left disappointed after he missed last weeks match against Leicester with a bruised foot.
City won the game 1-0 thanks to a Kevin de Bruyne free kick, although fantasy team managers would want to see the giant forward back in action as soon as possible.

They said: "Knowing pep, he'll play (Julian) Alvarez with Haaland coming off the bench."
Earlier this week, Haaland revealed a striking new hairstyle as he neared his return.
The goal machine was seen with a pair of long braids rather than his usual slick back ponytail look.
And the new look left fans impressed.
But regardless of a hairstyle change, Haaland and fantasy team managers will be hoping it is business as usual in front of goal.
