"I Like When Pep Shouts At Me!" 🤣 Man City Star Erling Haaland Named UEFA Men's Player of the Year 🏆
Erling, we're coming over to you.
Congratulations, first of all.
Second individual award in a week.
And your first season at Manchester City.
I mean, it's difficult to have wanted more, right?
Four trophies.
You're so young and you've won so much already.
How are you feeling right now?
How is it all seeming to you?
Yeah, of course, I feel good.
What more can I say?
I won the treble as 22 years old.
And yeah, I'm kind of living a dream.
This was my dream when I was young.
So to be able to do this together with my teammates
is something special, of course.
So I'm really happy.
And it also gives me so much motivation to keep on working
to achieve more of the trophy that just stood there.
And of course, these.
These are also really nice.
So yeah, it's free motivation and I'm so happy.
And the fact that you're so motivated
is quite scary for opposition defences.
And all of last season, every single game
we covered of Manchester City, the question was,
how do you stop Erling Haaland?
I mean, 52 goals is incredible.
How do you stop Erling Haaland?
Are you going to tell us that?
No, of course you're not.
You shouldn't ask me this.
You shouldn't ask me that.
OK, so I'm not going to ask you that.
I knew you weren't going to tell me anyway.
So the question is, how do you keep that level up next season?
Because you're going to want the same.
You're going to want more.
Can you do it?
I'll do my best, of course.
But I mean, as I said, it's motivation.
It's about keeping the head clear.
And I think even more eyes will be on me and the team now
after winning the Champions League and everything.
So we have to be more prepared.
We have to be more sharper and everything.
So for me, it's motivation.
And I'm ready to try.
I'm ready to do my best to have a new great season.
You know, you're surrounded by strong footballing figures,
strong influences in the dressing room as well.
I mean, we saw after, I think, the first game of the season,
Pep, I mean, he's not here today to defend himself,
but he was going on at you.
Why did you do that?
Your dad's here as well.
We see him everywhere.
Who are you more scared of, your dad or Pep?
Good question.
Sometimes Pep is a bit scary, I have to say.
But again, my father also can be a bit scary.
But anyways, this is something I like.
I like when Pep shouts at me
because he tries to get something in my brain
that he don't think I have.
So I like it.
So I'm not complaining at all.
He just wants to make me a better footballer.
So I'm not complaining at all.
And my father and me, we argue a lot.
We have a lot of good moments together,
so I'm not complaining there either.
It's all in the right direction, isn't it?
Very honest answer as well.
Love that.
