9 | Erling Haaland - 2023/24

Wonder if he will be loaned to Girona?

Well done in spending money on a EA sports Viking promotional player.

Wtf?

36 goals says different.

 

[hilts]

Worst fans in football. Bar none. No exceptions. Absolute pussies and shit-houses some of our “fans”.

The only scant consolation I have tonight is that a small, but occasionally very vocal, minority of our fans will be hurting so much. Or maybe they won’t…..

If you can’t support your players when you lose a cup final, you don’t deserve to support them when they win you a treble. And follow it the season after with another three trophies. All six trophies which were won with big Erl in the team.

Pmsl

6 finals in a row is becoming hard to write off as bad luck, not getting chances etc.

Every great forward in history has gotten extra attention in finals, they’re great because they score anyway.

Do you think Haaland and Aguero are not great forwards?

 

[Gabriel]

A thing that I’ve noticed is that when players take shots from outside the box, Haaland doesn’t generally follow in. Always thought that a striker’s predatory instinct should be to anticipate the keeper spilling it and snap up the rebound.

Wish he’d become more of a nuisance, even if it means giving free kicks away. Built like a brick shit house and often gets man handles by players much smaller. I actually like the fact there’s still improvement to his game needed.

He and Pep have a lot of work to do to fix this and get him scoring in these games because it’s not like he’s occupying 3 defenders and everyone else is running wild thanks to that either, he’s just barely featuring.

Checked out by March in the treble season. Done nothing against the big sides this year.
Madrid ain’t touching him.

 

[Lavinda Past]

It would be totally wrong to suggest that Haaland was to blame for today's performance.
Although he effectively failed to 'turn up' again, our midfield gave him absolutely nothing to work with.

Another big game and again he goes missing. 90 minutes in the pocket of a dwarf who’s not played for months but then again the mighty Johnny Evans had already schooled him this season .
We cannot afford such a luxury option as Haaland.
