Manchester City head coach Josep Guardiola decided to defend his striker Erling Haaland after a poor performance against Liverpool in the Community Shield.

During his statements, Guardiola said: “Every time we start a press conference, I get the feeling that this season is harder. So many teams are doing it well, the quality and the managers are exceptional, so the Premier League is the best.” “

He added: “I don’t know how many goals Haaland will score and I don’t care, we won’t win and lose for Haaland, we have to be ourselves, Haaland is fast and last week he played 90 minutes for the team. for the first time in five months. More time to get to the conditions, I think he will score goals like he did every year, if I have doubts about this, what should I do is change his style of play, and we will adapt players to him too, I have no doubt, but I don’t know what goals he will score.”
