9 | Erling Haaland - 2022/23 Performances

[bluenova]

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.

He's started more games for us than any other player in the squad, bar Rodri.

That's pretty impressive for a player that at 22 is already stacking up his list of minor injuries (https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/erling-haaland/verletzungen/spieler/418560) - These lists are far from perfect, but that's a lot to have by 22.

He tends not to be taken off until he's scored, or the game is under control, and this season is almost certain to be the most minutes he's ever played, so it makes absolute sense.

We have potentially 14 games left, and it wouldn't surprise me if he started 12, and it's possible he starts every single one. Makes absolute sense to take him off as soon as the games are safe, rather than make him play unnecessary extra minutes.

I would rather watch 60 mins of big Earl and a couple of goals each week, than just hearing when he might be back from injury .

 

[malg]

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.

Yep. I want him to score 50+ for the season but would be happy if he scored one more goal this season but that goal was the winner in a 1-0 CL final.

Reckon United will sign him up in the summer.

 

[Keepingthefaithsince1976]

I wonder what his true worth is given that he guarantees at least 40 goals a season to a top club...and probably 30 in a team at the bottom of the table. Madrid would have to re-mortgage the bernabeau to get him. Or go back to sheik mansour for another 400 million pounds loan like they did when refurbishing their stadium.

That second goal. That ball from De Bruyne.

It was a great ball and a great goal.
Erling's movement and run, his touch to get it onto his left and the finish were all top class and all accomplished at pace. He is lethal.

 

[Kamaro011]

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.

Yet he get injured when recent International break happen, did you forget or what. The good thing is you are not our Manager so you will not going to force him to play every single match for 90 full minutes.

If we manage to achieve the treble and haaland scores 60+ goals, do you think he wins the ballon d'or?

No .
