We need more energy, says Man.City's Haaland

Erling Haaland said Manchester City must show more energy to end their miserable run on the road in the Champions League after twice blowing the lead in a 2-2 draw at Monaco.
-
Haaland scored both the visitors' goals at the Stade Louis Il to take his tally for the season to 17 in just IO appearances for club and country.
Monaco rallied to level through a wonder strike by Jordan Teze and Eric Dier's late penalty secured a point for the Ligue I side.
"I'm p****d off, I think everyone should be," Haaland told the BBC. "It's not good enough."
City have failed to win away from home in Europe for a year, although a point did at least snap a run of four consecutive Champions League defeats on the road.
Pep Guardiola's men were dumped out before the last-16 stage last season for the first time since the 2012/13 campaign.
City scraped into the playoff round despite winning just three of their eight league phase games before a 6-3 humbling by Real Madrid over two legs.
Haaland was frustrated by his side's approach as they tried to protect their slender lead in the second half in Monaco rather than seeking to kill the game off.
