9 | Erling Haaland - 2022/23 Performances

He could also have been on the scoresheet if he converted his piss easy chance

Ye although the amount he's scored already I'll happily let him off :)

Well it is understandable he was tired after arsenal game. Not give the center backs enough pressure. Dog out some 50-50 and let the CB easy off in the box. Not enough pressing. But to be fair is it really a good idea to start an almost same XI vs Arsenal? Players are humans. I would start Alvarez instead of KDB to share some duty with Halaand knowing there won't be enough transitions opportunity until later stage of the game. Then bring KDB to finish the game.

Too much being written about him and his future with us and it’s having an affect on him and it’s clear to see this is not the same player before the World Cup. Feel sorry for him because the press and virtually every pundit will not be happy untill he leaves us and it could well be in the sumner as he is definitely not happy atm.

Bollocks

A couple of strange decisions by Haaland in the last games , allowing Mahrez to take a penalty versus Villa and going down for the penalty when clean through against Forest , before the World Cup when he was flying he takes both those chances.
Hard to criticise a guy with over 30 goals at this stage of the season , but maybe a slight blip in form/confidence , he will probably score three at Bournemouth :)

Think the penalty was because of his dead leg. What we need to remember though is he's only 22 and will have the odd dip or bit of inconsistency., he will be at least a couple of years off his peak yet.

I was really frustrated with that miss. Aguero may not have scored as many as Haaland does now, but Aguero buries that chance blindfolded, City cruise to an easy 2-0 win, and we go top of the table. Aguero was the epitome of a title-winning striker. Haaland has yet to prove that at this level.

So you're saying madrid will get him at just the right time ;)

Aguero missed chances and 22 year old Aguero, though I didn't see him, almost certainly did.

Yeah, it's probably not the best example because he scored a hattrick in that game, but I recall when we beat Chelsea 6–0, Aguero missed a chance from about a yard out.

Haha 1 yard tap in at the far post. Ballsed it up then 3 minutes later curls a 25 yarder in the top corner on his way to a hat-trick. Top banana

i miss sergio :(

For someone so big and powerful, he had no reason to drop like he did. Should have just powered on and taken the shot.

Ever seen fast paced car crashes?

When you're going at full pace, even the slightest thing makes you lose balance.

I don't blame him at all for going down there.. but he shoulda done better with the sitter.

The league refs are bent and won't call pens for us. Have you forgotten.. Kun got SEXUALLY ASSAULTED against West Ham and there was no pen for denying a clear goal scoring opportunity!
