“I’m looking at myself, I haven’t been doing things good enough, I haven’t been scoring my chances. It’s not good enough from me.”. Haaland, 24, has scored a phenomenal 108 goals in 122 City games — but has found the net just once in his last six.

He added: “We’re not able to win matches any more, we can’t control them like we used to. “We used to control them way more. But in defining moments I’m failing to score and I’ll do everything I can to turn this around. “We know how important confidence is and it affects every human being.
“That is how it is, we have to stay positive even though it is difficult.”. This is the worst run of ex-Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss Guardiola’s entire managerial career. FOOTBALL FREE BETS AND SIGN UP DEALS. But Haaland added: “We still believe in him. He has won the Premier League six times in seven years, so we’ll never forget that.
“He will find the solutions. He has been doing that every single year. “We have to work harder than ever. We just lost a game, another one.”. Defeat leaves the four-in-a-row champions sixth in the table — NINE points behind leaders Liverpool, who have TWO games in hand.
