9 | Erling Haaland - 2023/24

[Silva&Silva]

Apologies if this was brought up previously, but I wondered what everyone thought in regards to Haaland and the Ballon d'Or?

I want to see him really develop his all round game, which at the moment leaves a lot to be desired. When we play against sides who don't leave space at the back he often looks like a fish out of water to an extent. We all know he has elite pace and athleticism. But I want to see him linking play much better. He needs to look how the likes of Benzema in his prime and now Kane do and what they offer to their teams every game, even in games they aren't contributing with goals. I know he's still really young and he will get there in time.

Smash the red scum today please Erling for your dad :-)

Erling to do the job today!

Hopefully today is the game where everything clicks into place.

 

[footballmanager]

imagine if he used half his chances this season, would be at 20 goals already

So close to that third being his, but mishit it and it became a cross for Foden to tap in. Still, what a player and what a fantastic all round team performance.

Easing back. Scoring now and getting chances. Hat trick next week
