Pep Guardiola revealed that Erling Haaland could already have scored 15 goals this season but claimed that obsessing over missed chances is futile.
Haaland is netting more than a goal a game in the Premier League, with seven so far in his defence of the Golden Boot, yet might have doubled that total in all competitions.
The 23-year-old was wasteful during victory over West Ham last week before scoring late on and was frustrated by Red Star Belgrade in midweek.
Haaland's big chance conversion is 29 per cent, having recorded 60 per cent at the same stage last season and he has missed nine of those opportunities in the past two games.
