9 | Erling Haaland - 2023/24

[FJRMCFC]

He’s tough to watch when we’re up against quality opposition, we’re essentially reduced to 10 men. His lack of hold up play at his size is a crime and don’t think I’d bat an eyelid if he left for Spain

I definitely agree with the long shot theory. Pep doesn't though.

Yet we scored all 3 goals in the first leg like that.

 

[Mcfc1.9.8.0]

He's so good. He's completely underutilized. We never play through balls to him anymore. We slow the pace down that he's constantly surrounded by 2 central defenders. I know it's a joke, but he'll leave us because of this and whether we can replace him or not I have no idea.

We played him through one on one v Luton and palace and he missed

True but somehow he decided that wouldn't be a good idea here. If he told them to try a few long range efforts I'm sure they would have.

So stop doing it??

Jesus christ, lost a game have we?

Serious question for those who think our Erling is a Stat-padder, 'shit', or just a 'poor mans Troy Deeney'.

If the club were to sell him this summer, and you were asked to set the price, what do you think hes worth? In other words, what offer would you accept for him?

£20m?, £30m?
Would you be happy to see him sign for, say, Liverpool ? Surely youd see it as our stitching them up by offloading him, yeah?
Oh, and who would you sign to replace him?

Bayern would still love to sign Erling Haaland

 

[red 2 hats]

It's not happening for him at the moment, he doesn't look half the player of last season, he doesn't look like he's enjoying himself, sad to see.

Conversely though, can you imagine if he was playing against us tonignt. The space we leave… he just really isn’t suited to our current game. It seems to have become even MORE pedestrian. Pep has a challenge.
