9 | Erling Haaland - 2022/23 Performances

[Dazzle84]

I’m amazed by his technical quality on the ball from the little build up involvement he has had. His touch and control and passing seems as clean and crisp as KdB and Foden (if not more so), it’s quite incredible to watch. Good feet on the big man.

He seems to have an authority to it as well - he doesn't come back and get in the way, he opens up the pitch and drives the team on.

 

[Pedestrian]

His temperament is way beyond his years. He doesn’t seem fazed by anything. Couple of times last night he was held and badgered but he just gets on with it. Saying that he’s a beast and I’d imagine most wouldn’t be interested in being on the receiving end.

 

[Frankie lad]

As fabulous and exciting as he and his future here is the bloke needs in my opinion wrapping in cotton wool as does Kev and rested or taken off early as these guys are the boys that will make the difference at the sharp end in big,big games next Spring.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Erling Haaland has scored one fewer goal than Luis Suarez has in the Champions League.

He’s 22.

He doesn't need wrapping in cotton wool he just needs to play, it's what he wants and needs . The guy just wants to score goals let's let him get on with it .

 

[The slaughtered lamb]

Did anyone count his touches?

They did. Was reading the match report on the BBC earlier, 26.

I’ve no idea why they’re counting them or how that compares with other players.

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

Everybody raving about his goals. I'd like to sing the praises of his hold-up and lay-offs. They're getting better and better. I actually think the future may well be him and Álvarez playing together. The latter is gradually tuning in to him. And vice versa.

Scored one more than rughead

 

[Dax777]

Anyone else notice Clive Tyldesley trying to make out that Haaland’s goal was a high boot?

Then said Joao’s cross hardly deserved an assist because Erling had so much work still to do.

What a ****.

Who they hell was that dude :x... What a douchebag.

I don't think he's played a full 90 minutes yet and he's got a 1 month holiday when everyone else is in Qatar.
