Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola explained his selection process for his star forward.
The Citizens head coach admitted that he only needed to watch Erling Haaland train on Monday to put him in his team.
The Norway forward was leading the line in a 3-0 win over Young Boys in the Champions League on Wednesday, during which he scored a great brace.
I didn't even speak with him," Guardiola revealed about picking Haaland.
Yesterday, I saw the training session, how he moved and happy he was, and he felt good, so I said okay.
For us, Erling is so important with his threat. He felt good so okay he's going to play.
After the job was almost done (against Young Boys), take a rest for Sunday."
