9 | Erling Haaland - 2023/24

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

Think they are trying to get him to do a post game interview and he's not keen

I heard its the CIA trying to run a test on him to confirm if he's human or a robot pretending to be one of us. Hope they get him...damn AI bastard.

 

[CC1]

people go on about his touches, but all game hes making runs and battling usually 2 big center backs , he pulls players out of position leaving space for others, quoting his touches is very lazy form

He’s also having to wrestle with defenders who never get booked for pulling him to the ground - and that’s when he’s nowhere near the ball!!!

 

[Akira]

What's going on there?

Kidnapping, obviously. Can't believe Dias just watch and let it happen before him...

We need to keep Erling for as long as possible, so give him what he wants!
He's worth it as there is no one else like him, he's the most valuable player in the game!

I take it you haven't heard of Jonny "Fucking" Evans?

So he is on 375k a week, not the 900k a week which was what was in the media inc the Mirror ( 1 million a week) Mail, SportBible, Talksport, The Sun and more all claimed and posted last year.
Then everyone else took with as fact believing the pathetic figures spouted.
IE The Sun:

Inside Haaland’s fortune, from £200m Nike sponsorship deal to £900k-per-week Man City contract and £560m investment​

But we also paid his Dad 500m, his agent 150m & his 3rd cousin, twice removed, a billion

What about Antony? He's supposed to be a top notch striker.

That was kinda my point. I suppose I should have put one of those winky wotsits on the end.

He's not bad at punching the ground too .

Wouldn't sell him even for 250 million. Imagine Madrid having a front 3 of Mbappe (free), Haaland and Vinicius. That's the CL hopes gone for a decade.

Plus they have Bellingham in midfield...the good news - they can't afford them all!

 

[Galvanoth]

It was just his first year and he already did what he did but he'll get there on " the most decisive games"

In what way is the Community Shield more important than the league games against Arsenal, in which he scored twice?

Yeah but those teams were concentrating so hard on stopping him, they left the others free. They can't mark everyone and we have the quality to make them pay.

Anyway, you can bet Erling knows he can get better, but in the meantime lets remind the haters what he won in his first season with us...

 

[Mr. Wednesday]

I'll take his 2 goals against Bayern (the best team City faced last season) over glorified friendlies and the FA semi as the 'most decisive' games.

And he would have had at least 2 against Madrid if Courtois hadn't been at his absolute best. One of the saves was frankly ridiculous.

Time and time again it's proven not to quite work that way. You can have all the individual brilliance in the World, but it's still a team game.

They said that about Mbappe, Neymar and Messi at PSG
