I’m Not Happy With Haaland For Not Scoring A Hattrick – Pep Guardiola

The Premier league champion cruise to a comfortable victory yesterday with a 4-0 thumping of visitor Southampton

Despite their victory and fine form, the Gaffer, Pep Guardiola is disappointed in the performance of his striker.

During the interview, he said:

“I’m so upset with him – he didn’t score three goals. That’s why there’s a petition to sack him from the Premier League!” Guardiola joked in his post-match news conference. “Expectations here are so high that people expect he’s going to score every game three or four goals. But at the end he was there to score it. He helped us again, keeping the ball and fighting and I think Erling played really well today.”

The Southampton boss Ralph Hassenhuttl admitted that the presence of Haaland affected the way he set up his side defensively with two centre-backs instructed to stop him, yet the Norwegian still managed to find space and his 65th minute strike was typically unstoppable.
