What Did Haaland Say?
Haaland scored his 13th career hat-trick today just at the age of 22, also seeing Man City extend their unbeaten start to the season.
“These games are why I’m here – to turn things around when there are difficult times,” Haaland said.
“Of course you see on the pitch I enjoy it and I feel a connection around me. Of course it takes to time but I know it will come and get even better. And that’s a good feeling…
“Finally Phil played the ball to me! It’s a really good feeling, this. We played for each other, we played together and that’s really good. We don’t care who scores, it’s about winning and the winning mentality.”
Meanwhile Pep Guardiola also spoke about Haaland after the game.
“What he has done today, he has done all his career. It’s nothing special – it’s his style. He is astonishing.”
