Erling Haaland insists he is in the best form of his career after an electrifying start to the season.
The Manchester City and Norway striker has already scored 27 goals in just 17 appearances across club and international duty this term. Even by Erling Haaland’s own exceptional standards—he has netted 142 goals in 160 games for City since joining in 2022—his current numbers are truly remarkable.
“It’s been a strong start, and I feel really good. This is the best version of myself. I’ve never felt better than now,” Haaland said.

He explained that maintaining this peak performance requires more than just natural ability. “To stay sharp, I need to keep my mind in the right place, recover properly, get a lot of treatment, and eat the right things. It’s about staying in the zone, maintaining balance, keeping energy levels up, staying motivated, and doing what’s best for my body and brain.”
Erling Haaland will be aiming to extend his scoring streak as City prepare to host reigning champions Liverpool in the Premier League on Sunday. The match also marks the 1,000th game of City manager Pep Guardiola’s illustrious career—a milestone Haaland says has helped elevate his game.
“Since I arrived at City, Pep has worked with me on movement and positioning to create scoring opportunities. He’s a genius, and it’s been a great journey so far. There’s a reason why he’s been so successful—his dedication and hard work are incredible,” Haaland added.
Sunday’s clash is expected to be a pivotal encounter as both teams seek to maintain pressure on Premier League leaders Arsenal.
“We need to be ready because it won’t be an easy game,” Erling Haalandsaid. “The rivalry between Man City and Liverpool has been amazing over the years—pushing each other, improving, and fighting for the title. It’s going to be a tough match, and we need to be at our best.”
Erling Haaland is currently just two goals shy of reaching 100 Premier League strikes, underscoring the prolific form that continues to make him one of the game’s most feared forwards.
