Premier League: Pep Guardiola happy that Erling Haaland re-fitted as a city placed on the Champions League
Attack Manchester Cityer Erling Haaland enters the beginning against Southampton this weekend, Pep Guardiola said on Friday after the Norwegian attacker recovered the ankle injury that left him on the side for almost six weeks.
With 21 goals in the Premier League, Haaland was a candidate for the Gold Calter Collen Boot Award, but slid to the third one behind Liverpool‘S Mohamed is wrong (28) and Newcastle United‘S Alexander Isaac (23).
Town Third are on the three game table left, three points behind another set Arsenal and the point above Newcastle.
“(Haaland) is ready, it’s fit. If he starts, we decide (on Saturday)”, Guardiola told reporters.
“Still Rodra Not Available. Oscar (Bobb) and Nathan (Ake) began to train with us, but it is still not available. “
Southampton I sit the bottom of the table with 11 points, and only two wins the whole season.
However, the already exited south-coastal club have nothing to lose, and Guardioli does not lead them lightly as he seems to unite the Champions League Chelsea, Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa All in the mix.
“We start 0-0 and it’s a mass important game for us. Three games are left. Huge respect for them,” he said.
In the city’s current form, winning four straight games, he said, “These are the best results that we are fine. At the beginning of the season we did it. In terms of today we can do better.
“The goal of not champions to qualify for the next Champions League season. If we make three wins, we will be there. It’s in your hands.”
Despite his problems earlier this season, the city could still finish a second and win the Fa Cup, but Guardila doesn’t think too ahead.
“I’m not thinking about it, I’m sorry to tell you. It’s just Southampton that comes to mind and I’ve been thinking about them all week,” he said.
“The rest of the analysis, we will do that at the end of the season.”
