Manchester City striker Erling Haaland admitted he hasn’t scored enough goals for the team and he needs to improve. The Norwegian forward scored from a spot-kick in the stoppage time against the defending champions Liverpool to help his team secure all three points at Anfield on Sunday.

In 25 matches of the Premier League, the lanky striker has scored 21 goals and has also provided six assists. However, Haaland last scored an open goal for City on December 20 against West Ham.

The 25-year-old said he must perform better for his team.

“I haven’t scored enough goals since the start of this year, you can say, and I know that I need to improve,” Haaland told reporters.

“I know I need to be more sharp, better at all of this, and this is something that I have to work on.

“I have to keep going because this is what everyone deserves and expects.

“I don’t want to speak about why I haven’t performed. I don’t think there’s any excuse. Fatigue is a lot is in the head.

“It’s a lot of games. Look at the schedule, it’s not easy, and for me, it’s about staying fit, don’t get injured.

“That’s the most important thing. And try to be ready to help the team.”

Meanwhile, after 25 matches, table-toppers Arsenal has a six-point lead, with the Cityzens in second place with 50 points. Haaland said the Premier League title race isn’t over till its actually over.

“We’ve seen before that the title race is not over until it’s over,” Haaland said.

“So for me right now, I need to go shower and get back on the bus, recover, eat some good food, and focus on Fulham, because there’s still many games.”

Manchester City will next take on Fulham at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday.
