9 | Erling Haaland - 2022/23 Performances

[Blue and true]

Has to be said, it was a worse penalty than the two Mahrez missed in recent weeks but when your lucks in that's what happens. Got away with it but who cares.

I respectfully disagree with that, mate. Riyad's recent penalty misses, if memory serves me well, were keeper height. That facilitates the keeper making a save.

As a kid, you're taught two golden rules regards penalties: hard, low. Yesterday, Erling's wasn't very powerful, but it was low enough to trouble the keeper. He nailed one of the golden rules. Any more height on that kick and Leno saves.

But, as you say, he's in such a rich vein of form that he was never going to miss. Such is his proficiency, he'll probably score with his left arse cheek in the coming weeks.

He was like a machine possessed when he came on vs Fulham, great to see

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

He put the fear of God into Fulham when he came on. A real game changer.

Erling only came for the money, as Amy Scouser and Rag. ;-)

He's an absolute animal.

Did anyone take the cash out for their bets due to his injury?

 

[braut]

Commentators on CHE-ARS keep referring to Haaland all the time.

"Can't help thinking Haaland would have put that in the back of the net."
"Haaland has more [goals] than Chelsea combined."

No doubt he has made an impression.

He's a massive blue and I fucking love it

Yeh I did. £405 off a fiver was too good to resist

Where did you get those odds?? Lol
We cashed out last week, 50 quid profit each off a 60 quid bet at 5/2. Total was about 160 while waiting until end of season was 210,so it seemed a no brainer.
