Haaland has responded to criticism about how involved he is in City's build-up play during games after netting the winner against his former side Borussia Dortmund in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday night.
The 22-year-old only had 26 touches of the ball in the entire game, but still grabbed the headlines by netting a scoring the winner in the 84th minute with his only real chance of the match.
"People maybe talk that I don't touch the ball enough and this and that but I don't care about this. I know what I'm going to do, what I have to do and this is exactly what I did today in a difficult match and this is exactly what I will keep doing," he expressed to beIN SPORTS.
He would go on to reveal his biggest dream by further justifying the need, or lack thereof, to touch the ball in a position such as his.
"My dream is to touch the ball five times and score five goals. That's my biggest dream," he added.
Haaland has already been a massive success at the Etihad Stadium, having found the back of the net 13 times in nine games.
