During a recent interview with Sky Sports, Manchester City striker Erling Haaland was asked about Arsenal's result against Brighton. The Gunners had drawn 1-1 with Brighton, and some were suggesting that it was an early slip up for them in the Premier League title race. However, Haaland quickly dismissed these claims, stating that it was still too early in the season to be talking about slip-ups.
Despite Arsenal initially taking the lead with a goal from Kai Havertz, Brighton managed to equalize after Declan Rice was controversially sent off. This result was seen as a potential slip-up for Arsenal, but Haaland believes that it's important not to jump to conclusions too quickly, especially in the highly competitive Premier League.
Haaland himself had just scored his second hat-trick in as many games, helping Manchester City to a 3-1 victory over West Ham. This win put City at the top of the Premier League table with a two-point lead over their rivals, including tomorrow's opponents Manchester United.
When asked about Arsenal's draw, Haaland laughed and shook his head at the suggestion that they had slipped up. He made it clear that he didn't want to use those words and reminded everyone that there are still many games left in the season.
The Norwegian superstar, who has already scored seven goals this season, also shared his thoughts on his own performance. He expressed his happiness with the three points and stated that he feels good and energized after having a long vacation and pre-season break. Haaland emphasized the importance of taking breaks to rest and recharge in order to perform at his best throughout the long season.
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola also had high praise for Haaland's performance against West Ham, calling it "unbelievable" and highlighting his incredible goalscoring instinct. Guardiola also emphasized the importance of allowing Haaland to play his game and do what he does best.
Looking at the team's overall performance, Guardiola was pleased with their performance against a tough West Ham side. He acknowledged the danger that West Ham posed, especially with players like Paqueta and Kudus in their attacking lineup. However, he was happy with how City controlled the game and felt that the team played well overall.
Guardiola also noted that this game marked the end of the pre-season and that the team will now be playing two games a week. He acknowledged that this will be a challenging time for the team, but he is confident that they are ready for the challenge.
In conclusion, it's clear that both Haaland and Guardiola are focused on taking each game as it comes and not getting too far ahead of themselves. They are both determined to continue their strong start to the season and compete for the Premier League title.
