9 | Erling Haaland - 2023/24

[Blue Steel]

Great to see him back on the scoresheet again today.

It’s early days this season in the grand scheme of things, I’ve got no worries at all about his ability to come good when needed. Feels like Pep is still experimenting in this early part of the season and like last year, I think things will really click at a crucial stage.

Best game for a long time, got involved far more, pressed well , bullied the opposition and scored a superb goal, well done Big man.

Erling lashes out at the horrible cuntstain of a media outlet in Norway called TV2. They like most newspapers here have a editorally controlled anti-City campaign going on. Simply to please the red gimps and get their clicks of course. These are the same cunts who gleefully announced Laportes long-time injury back in the day as good news since it might help the dippers win the league.

Here they have headlined yesterdays match report with "Braut-rowdiness after the match". To which our good man replies "What rowdiness? Why don't write about me finally ending the biggest goal-drought of all time. #Clowns".
Go get them Erl.

Haaland scoring two beauties of a goals this week.

The critics come out of woodwork when he doesn’t score yet he is top goal scorer.

Haaland - some interesting threads on Twitter I read that is insightful for those who feel frustrated when he doesn’t get to score sheet. Rival fans call him tap in merchant but he is more than that and it’s not quantifiable in stats.

I have saved some detailed post about the ‘other things Haaland does that impacts us along with goals bar the assists. Worth a read!

Great article written when we signed which was insightful about his other qualities and he was factor in our champions league win. It’s understated but if he wasn’t on the score sheet doesn’t mean he had a bad games most of the time.

Really pleased he got back on the scoresheet again and it was an excellent finish. I think that puts to bed the opinion from some diots that he only scores tap ins.

Great goal, and others are thriving from the space he leaves dragging the opposition defenders away.

Hopefully he goes and destroys the rags again this weekend.
