Erling Haaland has delivered a passionate message to his teammates, urging them to turn disappointment into motivation after Manchester City failed to secure the 2025/2026 Premier League title.
Speaking after the club’s missed opportunity to retain the championship, Haaland admitted the setback should ignite anger and determination within the squad going forward.
“The whole club should use this as motivation now, we should be angry, we should feel the fire inside our belly because it’s not good enough,” he said.
“It’s gone two years now without winning the Premier League, it feels like forever, and we’re going to do everything we can, everyone that will be here next season, to win the league.”
The striker’s comments reflect the high standards within Manchester City’s dressing room, where expectations remain firmly set on domestic dominance despite the recent disappointment.
City’s inability to clinch the title this season marks a rare gap in their recent Premier League success, intensifying pressure ahead of the next campaign.
Haaland’s rallying cry is expected to resonate strongly within the squad as preparations begin for the 2026/2027 season, with the club aiming to reclaim its position at the summit of English football.
