Zlatan confident of winning<br />

EPL with Man Utd<br />

• Reuters<br />

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is sure he<br />

will win the Premier League<br />

with Manchester United and<br />

says his performances will<br />

improve once he picks up the<br />

rhythm of the English game.<br />

The 35-year-old has scored<br />

six league goals since the start<br />

of the season, including two<br />

against Swansea City at the<br />

weekend that ended a twomonth<br />

league drought.<br />

“If I could win the Premier<br />

League, the next day I would<br />

stop playing football... almost.<br />

Hopefully I can win it, and I<br />

will win it,” he told.<br />

“We have been a little bit<br />

unlucky in certain games, but<br />

we believe. When you believe<br />

it will come.”<br />

Ibrahimovic said the fact<br />

that United have failed to<br />

mount a title challenge in three<br />

seasons of decline after the<br />

retirement of Alex Ferguson<br />

means they must work even<br />

harder to restore their place at<br />

the top of English football.<br />

“From just below to the<br />

top, I think there is a big difference.<br />

After a couple of years if<br />

you haven’t been on the top of<br />

the table you notice it, you feel<br />

it. That’s what we are working<br />

for,” he said.<br />

“I’ve missed pretty good<br />

chances, which I don’t (usually)<br />

see myself doing, but it’s a<br />

different game here. I know I<br />

can do more, I know the team<br />

can do more. I want to do<br />

more. I will do more.”<br />

Ibrahimovic has won titles<br />

in four different countries and<br />

played at Ajax Amsterdam, Juventus,<br />

Inter Milan, Barcelona<br />

and AC Milan. The Swede has<br />

won a trophy in each season<br />

since 2001. •<br />
