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 />
