Guardiola defends Haaland and makes ambitious announcement for the rest of the season

Manchester City is in trouble. Humiliated by Tottenham on Saturday afternoon in the Premier League (0-4), the four-time reigning English champion is now down to five consecutive defeats in all competitions. A rebound against Feyenoord in the Champions League is inevitably inevitable. And yet, this does not at all undermine the confidence of Pep Guardiola, convinced that his team will achieve great things this season: “I have the feeling that this season we are going to do very, very good things. I'm not giving up and I have a feeling we'll be there” he said at a press conference.

Guardiola to a good feeling!

The Spaniard then wanted to defend Erling Haaland, who has been the subject of some criticism lately for his clumsiness in front of goal, he who was unlucky this weekend against Spurs: “I would say the reason for our lack of goals is not Erling Haaland. Without Erling, we would be in more trouble! Erling will soon score 2/3 goals in a match, you will see. He always did that” he said. A scathing observation for a player who has already scored 15 goals in 16 matches in all competitions this season.
