9 | Erling Haaland - 2022/23 Performances

[Blue tiger]

May have been said already, but the difference between this lad and say Sterling and Jesus, when he went 1 on 1 I expected him to score, when they would go through, I hoped they'd score.

Opposition defenders must be having sleepless nights, mad how he's only 22

Yes it has been said before many many many times

I thought he looked at bit Wanchopian in the build up at times and there's room for improvement there. But yeah, the killer instinct he has turns bad into good and good into great.

Lol

Miles more pace than prime Sergio to be honest. If he chooses to stick around he’ll smash the great man for goals too. We’ve signed an absolute freak of a goal scorer. The biggest signing in our histery by far

Yep. He’s better than Sergio.

Aguero was absolutely rapid when he arrived, the injuries in 2012/13 took a yard off and then the big hamstring injury under Pellegrini took another couple.

By the time Pep arrived he was quick enough and that's about it, but at Atletico and in his first season he was absolutely rapid. Would have loved to see that Sergio play for Pep, I think a lot of fans don't realise what we lost out on because of those recurring muscle injuries in his early 20s, he would have won ballon d'ors.

Love having a striker.

Of course there's stuff he can and will improve on - partly his youth, partly just being new to the league and his teammates and the manager.

But he's got the skills we need and he's made a very good start.

When Sterling took penalties I use to turn my back to the goal.

Seeing him for the first time in the flesh, he is as advertised.
He is a beast and is so fast and that second goal is what was written on the box.
We have replaced Sergio and this lad is going to be a superstar!

 

[didactic]

Yep. He’s better than Sergio.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!!!

"He won't have any space to run in behind."

So did the opposing keeper and he still missed

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Meh. He’s no Bianchi

After I wrote my post I was waiting for this 8-)

 

[Legal Alien]

Yep. He’s better than Sergio.

I do think we have replaced Sergio with him and he definitely has the potential to be better, but Serge scored so many great goals and gave us so many great memories so it's premature to say he's better right now.

The moment he developed into complete striker in the mold of Kane and Benzema, he will be the most dangerous player on the front than he is now which is scary to think off (for good reason) because he is still young and have plenty time to improve even further under world class manager like Pep Guardiola.

 

[Churchlawtonblue]

We haven't had a striker that could score as easily since Sergio. He is fast, very fast, he's big and very very skillful. He makes it look easy.

He is the real deal.

Enjoy blues.

Remember last weekend people losing there heads because he didn’t score against the rats. How times can change so quick. Great performance today he will only get better.

According to some , not sure who, but it has been mentioned that his buy out clause is £150m , and we are just a stepping stone until Real come calling , thats fine by me , 5 years of this lad leading our line will be heavenly
