Man City star Haaland's advice: Don't overthink - it's bad for the brain

The Norwegian forward has netted a total of seven goals in his last three matches, with impressive hat tricks in two consecutive games.

But after a 3-1 win over West Ham, in which he scored all three, Haaland was keeping his feet firmly on the ground.

“The start to the season is good but don’t forget there are 35 games left – there are plenty of points to play for,” he said.

“It’s about focusing game-by-game and to get the three points.

“We can’t think too much because it’s not a good thing for the brain. We focus on trying to become better as a team and as individuals – on and off the pitch.”
