Erling Haaland 🤖

all goals count the same though

Ffs. 5 goal snobs. Instinct and poaching at its best. He is a 6ft 4 Gerd Muller. Fucking FIFA generation.

They’re apples and oranges imo.

Haaland reminds me more of a wide receiver, insane numbers but dependent on the system to suit him and service.

Mbappe is a quarterback. He is the system, can create for others and score.

I don’t think it’s even a question who the better all around footballer is. We just have to hope John Conner shows up soon to rescue us from that fucking ponytail cyborg.

Haaland is still young and should develop some semblance of a good overall game, he’s very intelligent and his technical ability is underrated IMO

You can’t necessarily have everything at such an age, he has the goal scoring ability that is above a generational level and can’t be taught.

I like to see development even in elite talent, I think he’ll round out nicely with time.

Lad isn’t completing full games on a regular basis either.
Broke the club record scored in a season. He’s on 38 and counting.

Meh. Tap in merchant. Porno Trog makes Fabrizio Romano look like Ronald Koeman.

Exactly, and its funny to say but I don’t even think this City team is fully optimised for him despite his ridiculous goal scoring.

Imagine him in that City team with peak Sane and Sterling on both flanks? This City team lacks genuine width which puts even more focus on him and limits the team as an attacking unit to a degree.

This is a good point and really an edge given to our hopes of the title.
That odd game it doesn’t quite come together is the couple of dropped points that gets it over the line.

Yeah definitely, when it clicks they are the best in business but at times they just don’t have that potency and it stems from a lack of other killers out wide with that dynamic movement and ability to truly stretch teams.

Another hat trick so far

Ffs Man City hitting good form

So is the narrative about Haaland making them worse officially dead or will The Athletic run another round of stories about it.

What’s that ? 42 in all competitions in mid March ? Lol

Against farmers.

They have Liverpool in league next. Liverpool been inconsistent, granted, but they’re more than capable of giving City a game.

Kompany handing his old mates a free pass to the semi

Was it Steve Bruce who always used to phone it in against United regardless of who he was coaching? Feels similar to that.

Burnley got hammered at the etihad every season under Dyche. This isn’t a new thing

I’m fed up of hearing about the ugly twat .
He’ll be gone when City are found guilty of irregularities in money .
How did they actually get him for 50 million?

Release clause

I know about that but that’s very iffy . Fair play and money interactions are looked into that’ll go out of the window .
More shysterness from Shitty
