Man City Striker Haaland Can Even Get Better – Pep Guardiola

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has said there is plenty of scope for Erling Haaland to get even better.

The Norway striker has scored 50 goals for City this season, including 34 in the Premier League and 12 in the Champions League.

The English record for goals by a top-flight player in a single season is 63, by Everton’s Dixie Dean in 1927-28.

“Always I’ve said with Erling it will be tough when you look at what he has done,” said Guardiola.

“If he doesn’t score the goals like he’s scoring now people will say ‘Oh, he’s in a bad situation’ – but his game can improve a lot.

“I wouldn’t say in the box but in the game itself, the movements. I think he has that feeling, ‘Is that enough?’, and I think he has the desire to get better as a player.

“As long as he has that he can do it.”
