9 | Erling Haaland - 2022/23 Performances

[Fiikso]

I said he could score 50 league goal and 20 cup goals.

He cant score 12 goals in the next 11 league games and another 16 cup goals in 7 cup matches.

Or can he ?

8-)

I think he will score 18 or more in his remaining league games

 

[r.soleofsalford]

Wouldn't he need 22 league goals from now until the end to get 50? He's on 28 now

40 is possible giving his ratio. I think around 36 or 37 is probably more realistic though and still record breaking in the premier league

Yes 22 in the league in 11 games and 6 in the cups in 7 games.

18 games in total to score 28 goals.

He could be close I wish I`d put money on it.

I think having Haaland in the team will re-energize Pep and get him to extend his stay further.

How he can leave now that he has the best striker in the world in his hands, one who has the perfect attitude that Pep looks for?

If he can leave Messi he can leave anyone tbh.

spanish media is who said release clause is related to pep,city havent said anything

 

[Cricket Blue]

Oh well it must be International week
The Spanish hawks are making stories up again

 

[Cricket Blue]

If we can get 4/5 years out of erling then you got to be happy with that. He is only 22, go abroad peak 27/28 if he must.

Probably the plan all along. Go to Madrid too early and he is stuck there on an unrealistic release clause, look a hazard and bale.

Real Madrid don’t treat players properly.

Or conversely make him nor want to leave here

 

[Galvanoth]

Only injuries can stop this beast from becoming something legendary and unfortunately he's been plagued by them so far in his still short career, and once again he's missing another match for Norway due to injury. Just to put into perspective, Haaland is only 22 years old and has already missed 39 games due to injury in his career which is more than half the games C.Ronaldo has missed during his entire 20 year long career(63 games missed because of injuries and Messi 135 games). Haaland-224 days missed due to injury, Ronaldo - 407 days and Messi 720(135 games).

Just a curious fact, Haaland's substitute for today have scored less goals in his career(36goals in 153 games) than Haaland in this season so far( 42 goals in 37 games).

Source is shit and shouldn't even be given oxygen by City Xtra, let alone here.

He wants a statue built.

All the available evidence suggests that he'd made up his mind about leaving here within 3-4 years before he'd even made his debut. Better to just accept it and enjoy him while he's here IMO.

One mans evidence is another mans media reports. IMO no evidence at all.

If the release clause rumours were untrue it would've been easy and very beneficial for us to deny it, but we haven't. To me it's as good as confirmed that he at least has one eye on a La Liga move before he hits his prime years.

[supercity88]

Because of his age I'm sure he wants to play all over Europe setting records wherever he goes. But as he gets older that ambition might change and he might instead want to create a legacy somewhere. Why not be City's all time top scorer? The top scorer in premier league history? The top CL goalscorer. He could achieve all of those things with us.

He can start by scoring enough to win us the treble!

We don't normally respond to rumours. If you only respond to the ones that are false people then know which ones are right. Best not to talk about any as a general rule

It won't be for at very least a couple of season if that happens.

Echoes of Kun and the inevitable Madrid draw; it doesn’t make it watertight and probably dictated by Pep in all honestly but a change in personal circumstances, family etc, may shift the goalposts (:
