9 | Erling Haaland - 2022/23 Performances

[Craig]

Stats 'n trophies are a secondary consideration when it comes to the Ballon d'Or. It's more to do with the colour of yer shirt!

I think Messi deserves it due to the world cup. Erling should definitely win it one day though, hopefully with us

He'll probably stay ahead of Mbappe and Sutcliffe in the CL tbf.

He'll have more of a chance with his next club - it's what the judges are waiting for!

The three contenders for the ballon d’or. Who should win it based on stats and trophies ?

Messi: 35 goals from 99 shots on target. (ratio 0.35)
Mbappé: 42 goals from 104 shots on target. (ratio 0.40)
Haaland: 45 goals from 69 shots on target. (ratio 0.65)

From these numbers, it could be argued that Erling is the more clinical finisher by a considerable margin.

Last player off the pitch. Love his attitude.

Goal scoring machine.

Bayern will have to open up wide in Munich, Erling will have a field day behind their lines.

 

[Magz]

He's the best player in the world

 

[Blue Potato]

So unselfish to pick out a brilliant cross for Bernardo for the second, then grabbed a goal for himself.

So lucky to have him

 

[Bazzmand Show]

That pass, fuck me this lad is a generational player.

Brilliant cross.
In general his link up play is getting more reliable as well.

 

[yankblue]

Goal aside he put in a shift and was involved in the buildup, his link up play is noticably improving

Picking out Bernardo for the second was as unselfish as you can get, especially for a goalscoring lab experiment

He's only getting better

 

[aguero93:20]

Shite, doesn't fit the system, doesn't create, doesn't get involved in build up play, not enough touches, get rid.

 

[hampshireblue]

He's a selfish bastard-another goal and an assist!! and apparently he moaned about the quality of Bernardo's header! lol

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

No coincidence that the supposed best defender in europe , Upermancrapo , shit his pants because Haaland was on the pitch , he could only dream of playing at Dias's level.

 

[jimharri]

Shite, doesn't fit the system, doesn't create, doesn't get involved in build up play, not enough touches, get rid.

Agreed. We need to get Rashford in, in his place. Having a living, breathing saint in our midst would work wonders for our PR.

Indeed. Said it in the match thread, but I don't think Aguero crosses that, I imagine he creates space and has a shot.

Haaland seems to love an assist as much as a goal - usually doesn't have to bother, but makes some selfless decisions which are surprising for such a lethal goalscorer.

 

[Metal Biker]

In 10 years time people will be mentioning his name in the same regard as they do Messi and Ronaldo.

45 goals in all competitions; record for a Premier League player.
