Erling Haaland has expressed his desire to become even better at Manchester City after an incredible debut season.
Manchester City made a move to sign the promising young striker from Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2022, and Haaland immediately made an impact.
His clinical scoring ability filled a gap in Pep Guardiola’s squad, leading him to score an astounding 52 goals in just 52 games.
Despite achieving a historic treble for City, Haaland is not satisfied and is eager to improve even further. In an interview with The Official Man City Podcast, Haaland revealed, “I think there’s lots of things to still improve. When you play so many games it’s difficult to train on things.”
“There’s lots of things to improve. I want to become even better with the team, to become more solid with the team, to perform in the biggest games. This is what we need. I want to recreate the things we did last season of course.”
This attitude exemplifies what separates the great footballers from the truly elite. Haaland’s insatiable hunger for success and improvement despite already achieving so much in his debut season speaks volumes about his mentality and dedication.
Additionally, Haaland displays humility in acknowledging a rare weakness in his game and is determined to work on it. He recognizes that despite City’s success, there are aspects of his gameplay that need refinement, such as becoming more involved in the team’s play and performing better in the midfield.
Haaland’s commitment to continual improvement is a testament to his character and determination. It also reflects the culture at Manchester City, where players are constantly pushing themselves to be the best they can be.
The striker’s remarkable debut season and his unwavering dedication to becoming even better bode well for the future of Manchester City and fans can expect even more remarkable performances from Haaland in the coming seasons.
