Manchester City top scorer Erling Haaland has been ruled out of his side's trip to face Leeds with an injury suffered in training. Pep Guardiola is without Erling Haaland for the clash with Leeds at Elland RoadPrior to kick-off, Guardiola said: 'Two days ago, in the last moments of training, Haaland had a little injury. After City's defeat by Bodo/Glimt in the Champions League, he suggested playing too many games may have played a part. If it’s not man marking, it’s long balls… Every three days doing that for a striker like Erling is unsustainable. 'We have to make alternatives to try and have the dream so he can play and play and play more.'
