That second goal. That ball from De Bruyne.

I didn't give a shit how many scores he will get this season, just don't get injured and score the goal when it really matter the most.
Pep carefully managed his minutes to prevent injury is the right call.

I'm sure Haaland would prefer doing what hes doing with a chance of winning trophies than go looking for personal achievements like Kane and winning fuck all, its a team game
Never said otherwise did I

Just a shit Ricky Lambert
It may be more a case of Pep managing his game time to the club's advantage. He's had a spell (two, was it?) out with injury this season. Pep was probably thinking about not wanting to risk an injury to key men in what was, AT THAT TIME, a dead game. He almost definitely had an eye on wednesday night and the game in two weeks' time. I doubt it has anything to do with Haaland overshadowing the team. But yes, I totally see where you're coming from re those who have money riding on Haaland reaching a particular milestone.
To be fair, you'd never see Pep doing that with Messi. Dead game or not.
Taking off Haaland when the game is won makes sense but I really wish it wasn't every single game. We seem to take it as a sign that the game is won and we can stop playing, which nearly led to disaster yesterday.
And I was one of the wallies who thought we would miss Raz
We've been missing in-form Sterling for more than two years, so you weren't exactly wrong.

Haaland is big and likely prone to get injured compare to Messi. It's simple as that.
Imagine how much more he could get injured aswell
Come on, he's not made of glass. I don't know where this idea comes from that he will get injured if he plays 60 minutes every now and again.

It isn't. His injury record this season has been near impeccable. Dortmund's embarrassingly shite medical team couldn't keep a dog fit, let alone a footballer. Doesn't mean Haaland is crocked.
