Last season this game may well have ended a nervy draw.

 

[vmsuhail]

2 shots on target, 2 goals
Dream start for Erling Haaland.

I'll take that 2-0 all day long.

 

[Gogootz]

Great result against a tough side and on such a dry pitch aswell

 

[bobmcfc]

So glad the Kane transfer fell through. We would never have dreamed this otherwise

Whenever we win and those red gits drop points, I'm going to gloat with this, this year..

Great start, not a spectacular performance by any means but that’s not an easy place to go on the first game of the season.

There’s definitely better to come from some players but solid performance.

Haaland showed how deadly he is and it’s great he’s off the mark already, now he can just get on with banging goals in.

 

[hertsblue]

Great performance and win but only 2 on target from 14 attempts, rest of the team need to convert more chances

 

[yankblue]

Clean sheet. 2 Haaland goals. 3 points. Tough away fixture out the way.

Can't ask for much better.

If only the pitch wasn't so dry he'd have had his hattrick

 

[discopop]

Fucking hell with the Norse god and Alvarez we look absolutely sorted.

 

[BlueBanger]

Pedestrian first half with some sloppyness which improved somewhat in the 2nd. Haaland brilliant, Rodri is a boss, foden decent.

most 6/10 but a few solid 8/10's.

 

[frankMX]

Did Walker played as a midfield all match?

But why is his tv not in the centre of the wall, that would drive me mad. Is he blind in his right eye?

Have at it.

If Carlsberg did season openings...

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

That 2nd goal from Haaland - not only did I know he would score, but I actually saw the exact finish in my head when he was played through.

 

[Ilovehappyendings]

What I loved about Haaland's 2nd goal was how he looked so powerful as he ran through, almost like he had zero doubts he would score. The finish was subsequently emphatic. Clinical.

Sterling misses that
