EPL: We’d be in more trouble without him – Guardiola on Man City star

Daily Post Nigeria EPL: We’d be in more trouble without him – Guardiola on Man City star Home News Politics Metro Entertainment Sport Sport EPL: We’d be in more trouble without him – Guardiola on Man City star Published on November 26, 2024 By Don Silas Manchester City boss, Pep Guardiola has claimed that his team would be in more trouble at this moment without Erling Haaland. Haaland has scored 15 goals for Man City across all competitions so far this season. But the Norwegian’s scoring rate has slowed in recent weeks as Man City were defeated in all their last five games against Tottenham Hotspur, Brighton Sporting Lisbon and Bournemouth.

The results have left Man City with eight points behind leaders Liverpool on the Premier League table. Speaking in his pre-match press conference ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League clash with Feyenoord, Guardiola was keen to stress that Haaland is not at fault for the Cityzens’ current struggles. “He finds the target.



Sometimes the keeper saves it. Reason is not Erling. Without Erling we would be in more trouble,” Guardiola said.

“Without wingers, we have four or five but just one available. Phil was so productive last season and this season has struggled with some niggles and some injuries. “After Erling we have John, Josko and Kova as top scorers, that is not normal.

We have to survive. We have to create more chances. “We are lucky that we have Erling.

Every game he has three or four chances. One day he will score two or three like he has done since he arrived. “Tell me one team that would not be dependent on Erling scoring goals.

Norway is dependent on Erling as well?” Related Topics: EPL guardiola Manchester City Don't Miss EPL: Fulham must forget Wolves defeat – Iwobi You may like EPL: Fulham must forget Wolves defeat – Iwobi UCL: Guardiola makes one strong demand from Man City players after five straight defeats EPL: You’re selfish – Carragher blasts Salah over Liverpool contract saga EPL table: Ian Wright picks position Amorim should finish with Man Utd EPL: Amorim ready to bring Victor Boniface to Man Utd EPL: Man City contract talks on hold — De Bruyne Advertise About Us Contact Us Privacy-Policy Terms Copyright © Daily Post Media Ltd.
