Haaland's YouTube Channel: Day in the Life of a Pro Footballer

Not according to T'internet they don't .....

It's illegal for supermarkets or grocery stores to sell 'raw milk' in this country, according to the 'net' .... it can only be bought at a farm, farmers stores, ordered online ... or on a milk float round, if they do it !

Probably why Haaland didn't go to his nearest supermarket!

You could always buy a cow...
 
I'd be interested to know if he took that raw milk to the clubs training centre to have it analysed. There is a scene in the video showing it next to a specimen container with his name on it, either that was for piss or something else to be tested. Whilst the risks of serious illness from drinking it is relatively low to him as a young athlete, I'm sure nobody at the club would be happy if he missed a week or two's worth of training and/or games through illness from drinking raw milk.

Probably why Haaland didn't just nip to his nearest supermarket!

I'll be honest mate too much semi-skimmed has me running for the bogs, raw milk would probably be the end of me. Big Erl is made of stronger stuff

He's going to play well into his late thirties barring any serious injuries. Never seen anyone take care of their body like he obviously does.

You've got him eating raw milk and honey, training everyday with his own private trainer, having an ice bath and sauna in his house and then you've got Grealish getting sloshed and eating chinese takeaways every week. Levels.

Lol .... yep, they are poles apart, him and Grealish , aren't they ??

Haaland just plods on sticking rigidly to the things that have always worked well for him ..... Jack always gives you the impression that he's ready for a few beers and a Chinese or kebab at any given moment!

What strikes me about Haaland is just how respectful he is to everyone and for such a young fella.

Haven't watched it yet, but the one I recall is from not long after he joined. During the warm up on the pitch, the players were all throwing their bibs at the old kitman or putting them over his head - they obviously knew him well and we're taking the Mick a bit. Haaland walked up and handed his to him - it was the sort of thing your mum would have expected you to do and showed no arrogance of it being beneath him or someone else's job.

If he can stay injury free, he'll be a marketer's dream, so can see why he's started his own channel, especially if Norway make the World Cup.

I would imagine that Haaland's checked into all that before he started consuming raw milk ... he will have checked with the clubs health and fitness coaches/Doctors etc ..... I can't imagine he'd be posting a video online advertising the fact that he reguarly drinks that raw milk which anybody could view ... even Pep!

Haaland seems to play it all 'by the book' , and i doubt whether Pep has any trust issues with him at all .... be them milk or otherwise!

Loved that, what a fascinating guy he is

We're so lucky to have him at the club. World class, City fan, down to earth, incredibly disciplined and doesn't mind the shit weather

Yep, he is fascinating .... he's quite unlike other footballers, although other Norwegian players/Scandinavians may have similar fitness/eating habits etc .... he's just intelligent enough to realise that his 'body is his temple', and it has to be in peak condition, seeing as the bulk of his game relies on power, pace, anticipation .... he's rapid off the mark, has a razor sharp mind, and he wants it to stay that way .... at least until his playing days are over anyway!!

He'd piss celebrity masterchef if he ever went on it big Erl can cook up a storm! Very impressed he doesn't have a private chef. Needs to watch that Italian masseuse around the missus though!

Lol, I was thinking the same thing ..... Erling must completely trust that masseuse and his girlfriend .... it all seems to be a very 'cosy' arrangement.

He is an out and out star on and off the pitch.

Because it’s about him and his life as a footballer. Nothing to do with City.

Nothing to do with City?
Not sure about that - they clearly are supporting that as the video gave great insight into his training at the club as well as club physio - the club featured quite significantly as you would expect.

The channel is building Erling the brand rather than Erling the City player. Nothing against that just found it interesting. I suppose its following the model of Ronaldo on YouTube - I think he generated over 60m subscribers when he first launched. Erl will earn a good few more pennies from it and be able to afford a tomahawk steak every night :-)
 
Comes across very genuine and most of all humble.
A stark contrast to many in his position I’m sure..
