Pep Guardiola says people want Erling Haaland to fail, as he leapt to his striker's defence after Manchester City beat Young Boys.
"People expect he has to score four goals. People want him to fail," Guardiola said after the game when asked about the missed chances rather than the goals. "I'm sorry, he will score goals all his life."ALSO READ: Why Rico Lewis was frustrated with his Man of the Match performance for Man City vs Young Boys
With 11 goals and two assists from 13 games this season, Haaland may not be as prolific as he was last season, but Guardiola insisted that the striker's overall contributions to the team are always improving. "He made the second goal really good, What is important is creating chances and maybe in the right moment of the season he will be there even better than now. He has already scored a lot of goals in the Premier League, more than people who are getting a lot of compliments."
