Ibrahimovic vows to win Premier League title with Manchester United

After winning 13 league titles in four different countries, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is sure he will reign supreme in the Premier League.

The big Swede started life in England on a good note, scoring five goals in his first five competitive matches for Manchester United, but an eight-match league drought - his longest since 2007 - followed, and United's form suffered at the same time.

Ibrahimovic admitted he's missed "pretty good chances" in recent outings, but his confidence is, as ever, unshaken.

"Oof, it would be fantastic. If I could win the Premier League, the next day I would stop playing football … almost!" the 35-year-old told club magazine Inside United. "We have been a little bit unlucky in certain games, but we believe, and when you believe, it will come.

"Hopefully I can win it, and I will win it."

Ibrahimovic already made good on one promise to United supporters: that he would win the Community Shield in August. Scoring the first of two goals against Leicester City, he helped capture the first piece of silverware in the Jose Mourinho era.

He's done his best to ingratiate himself with the Old Trafford faithful, going above and beyond in naming Manchester one of the best cities he's lived in.

Having played in Turin, Milan, Barcelona, and Paris, it's a bold claim.

"I heard a lot of things that the city is this, the city is that, the weather is like this and the weather is like that, but, so far, everything has been good," he said. The city is the best city so far. I come from Sweden, I don't have big expectations when it comes to ... how do you say it … outside football."

United has quite a task ahead of it if Ibrahimovic is to add more trophies to his cabinet. The club's in sixth in the Premier League table, trailing leader Liverpool by eight points after 11 matches.
