Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has identified Erling Haaland as the player his team misses after their Premier League 1-1 draw with West Ham United on Saturday.
Haaland failed to score as Man City dropped two points against West Ham United at the London Stadium.
However, the outcome of the match against West Ham means Man City are now nine points behind Arsenal on the Premier League table, with one game in hand.
Speaking at his post-match interview after the game, Guardiola admitted that Man City misses Haaland because of his lack of goals in the past few weeks.
“The lack of goals, we miss him (Erling Haaland) of course,” Guardiola said.
“I always believe it’s the connections and many things that create good interactions. But Erling, we need his goals.
“We need to create more, like in the (first half), he has three chances there. We have to create that threat that we sometimes didn’t have. He will be back,” he said.
Haaland, meanwhile, remains the top scorer in the Premier League this season with 22 goals to his name.
