Stick him up front feed him the ball , ball goes in net. It's 's bloody simple .

Yes and what I liked was the passion he showed in the second half as well as encouraging the other players

He actually looks even happier when his team mates score than when he nets it himself.

100 % a team player.

We've all seen the clips of him; walking over to the shirt guy instead of tossing it to him, picking up the ref's spray and handing it to him mid-game, cheering like crazy every time a team mate scores even if they "should" have passed the ball to Haaland ... He hardly ever complains when he gets abused by opponents or neglected by the officials. Just puts his head down and works even harder for his team. Obviously mentally strong and focused.

There's not a single shed of diva or prima donna in this guy.
 
Overdue a hat-trick , would be nice to silence all the "we arent the same team with Haaland" doubters in the media , only we could have a potential 50 goal a season striker and pundits voice their doubts about him , staggering
 
We were told he's not very good in the air for a man of his size, but he's scored five headers for us already, so maybe he's working on it in training.
 
On the radio midweek they described City vs Spurs as a battle between the leagues top 2 scorers.

it was stupid then, but his hat trick today really underlined it.

Haaland (25) vs Kane (15) lol
 
Haaland now has 25 league goals at roughly the half way point in the season. In Aguero’s 10 seasons at City he scored 25 league goals only once - in 2014/15 when he scored 26.

So in a nutshell, Haaland is 1 goal short of Sergio’s best ever season, despite only being 20 games in.
 
Thought he might be reverting to the mean for a moment there.

25 goals - 10 ahead of where Salah was at this point during 2018. Haaland could not score for the next 10 games and he'd still be ahead of Salah's record. If he continues at his current run-rate he will beat the PL record in 6 games with about 3 months of football still to play (v Newcastle on March 4th).

He is on track to score between 46-48 goals, a bit of a drop-off from where he was... I've always said I think he'll finish at around 40 and I still think that's the case. That would still be absolutely mental considering the goal record has improved by only one goal in 30 years of Premier League football.

And the ill-informed media think we'd be better without him; laughable. He's a goalscoring prototype. Somewhere, hidden away in the forests of Norway, there's a lab where he was created.
 
Think he's got a game in him this season where he runs rampant and scores 5 in a half or something ridiculous
 
We just have to get the ball to him ,it really is as simple as that. Pep can tidy up his first touch, or get him to see more space than he is seeing currently ,but he is never going to make him a better striker in the sense of scoring goals it is a gift born in a lab and powered by a super cray computer not even Pep can improve on that goal instinct .

I agree. I'd like him to score a double hat. trick. Aguero was well on the way to to doing it after scoring 5 against Newcastle but pellegrini decided to take him off on 60 minutes, a decision that pissed me off.
